I haven't posted in awhile but I had to show off the new poison display case I just finished up a couple of days ago. Seemed like an appropriate time of year to be outside building a coffin. Still got some strange looks from the neighbors!

We moved about a year ago and almost all of my collection went into boxes and stored away. I finally got a section of the basement finished and everything set up, although I still need to build a little shelf for the miniatures sitting on the floor. I also have a recliner coming this week. Once...
I'm stuck in the hospital waiting to have my appendix taken out in the morning so I thought I'd post some pics I had on my laptop for the heck of it. [attachment=new2.jpg][attachment=pon.jpg] [attachment=new3.jpg]
I've been putting together a collection of mini spirits starting in the late 1800's and going all the way to modern bottles. When I have it all done I think it will be a cool display when I get my "man cave" done. Here are some of the recent...
Hello,I'm FAR from an expert on Warner's bottles so I thought someone here might be able to educate me on this one. I recently picked up this 6oz Warner's Safe Remedies. I had thought these were all ABM but this one has a tooled top. The neck is crooked and has some strange marks on both sides...
When we bought our house about 4 years ago we found a small, late 1800s trash pit but never did end up finding any privies. I haven't done much digging the last few years until my friend came over on the 8th and we located one of the older privies on the property. We opened it up but he ran out...
Just got this one in and I'm very happy with it. Embossed HALL'S BALSAM FOR THE LUNGS - A.L. SCOVILL & CO CIN'TI & N.Y. Super clean with a partial label.
I'm trying to learn more about ink bottles in general and was wondering of there any good books out there that focus just on that area of collecting? I'm looking more for information and idenrification than a price guide. Any good websites would be much appreciated as well.

I've been out of collecting for a few years and just started getting back in. I sold most of my better stuff 3 or 4 years ago and now I'm starting to rebuild. I picked these up last week from auctions.
I also did some trading with a friend who dug these.
I was trying to see if anyone had more info on this bottle/company. I have only seen a few of these and they all came from one dump that I dug with 2 friends.
