Ok guys & gals,

This pontils only category hasn't produced alot of action so far. Maybe a couple threads will get you posting some pics of some nice bottles in your collection! [:)]

This one is for cobalt pontiled bottles. I'll put a few sodas up to get things started. We all love pictures. I hope you all join in and post some stuff too. Lets keep these threads going and add to them as often as possible!

~Tim

Here's my only cobalt pontil. I dug it while crawling under an 1852 built barn I was working on a few years ago. It was literally just laying on the surface of the ground. What a day. It was really hazy so I did have it lightly tumbled. Only damage is a small chip to the lip. I was expecting to see the embossing for Harrison's on it, but apparently they had some unembossed bottles made for them as well way back then. Still very very happy with it as I only collect bottles I dig, so this was a nice suprise to say the least.

The base where the rod meets the metal.

I love this lip design unique to the Harrison's bottles.

I only have 12 pontilled bottles I've dug over the years. Only five are colored. Ironically , the only pontil I ever sold that I dug was another Harrisons. It was a little aqua octagonal Columbian Ink. I sold it to Bob Heath one day back in the early 80's before I knew better about selling my finds. Last pic another base shot.
