    Upstate NY - Saratoga Couny

    Unlisted, Humphreys' Pile Ointment Witch Hazel Oil Bottle?

    Thanks for the comments folks. Eric, It is an interesting form. I guess I called it unlisted, cause I have most bottle books, and after looking through most all of them, and online I found no listings for this varient. This was recently found in an 1800's house, just outside Saratoga Springs NY...

    Unlisted, Humphreys' Pile Ointment Witch Hazel Oil Bottle?

    When I said, offers accepted, I should have described condition. It is a dug bottle, with some over-all stain. Its got a couple shallow flakes on the side and top of the lip and some light scratches. Otherwise, no chips cracks or dings. a light tumble would make it sparkle. Funky shape and...

    Unlisted, Humphreys' Pile Ointment Witch Hazel Oil Bottle?

    I picked up a bottle on a hunch it might be a good one today. I got home, and can not find a match in any of my books, although none of them have a Veterinary Medicine section. I went online, and found a Trade Card, but nothing about a bottle that matches this. Matt's Book has several listings...

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY BOTLENUT!

    Hey thanks for the Happy Birthday Wishes folks. Had a great day with the family. My doctor would tell you my arm is healed, although in my opinion, its still got issues. Not much I can do about it. Will try to post pictures of a few bottles I've picked up over the last year or so.

    Wow this place is dead lately

    I have also noticed a drop in new activity on here. I dont contribute much myself though for a few reasons. I have not dug a bottle in 2 years now after a Career ending compound fracture to my arm. I now have a metal plate, and 9 screws holding it together. Had to leave my Job, which has led to...

    Fancy Pontiled Cologne

    Thats a fine looking Cologne, and not one I have come across.Several of the Colognes in my collection also have the initials D.R. I am not sure what it stands for. Early on, alot of these came from France, and as their popularity grew, they started producing them here. Its tough to determine...

    Amber, Dr. McWinnie's Spavolene Troy NY

    Epackage, yeah, I should have thought to check with Rick on this. He does know the local bottles quite well, and is quite good at research. Matt, thanks much for that info. I knew a couple people on here liked the Vet. bottles, but was not sure which. Maybe they will see this post. I was...

    Foamy, Black Utility Or Ink.

    Thanks for the nice comments about this Utility. I was not confident calling it pontiled, but it could be. Here's another picture I have of it. There is no roughness in the recessed base.

    Check out this base. Bubbles wrap around from the sides of the bottle.

    Foamy, Black Utility Or Ink.

    I don't know how this isn't pontiled. It must have missed being pontiled by a couple days or something

    Yesterday I also picked up this foamy Black Utility Or Ink. Its just loaded with bubbles. They even wrap around the base rim. Applied tapered lip. dot in the center of a recessed base. It stands 7" tall, and although it looks like its half air, its very heavy. When held up to the light the upper...
