A great thread, and that Dr Swetts is out of this world, damaged or not!

Thanks dbl A. I was very surprised to find it and the whole time I was underwater I thought I had found a N Woods Portland Me (Stoddard).
When I realized what I had I couldn't believe my eyes. I am told there were not very many of these out there.

So here is the Dr Swetts in all its glory. For those that dont know even a small shard of this bottle is extremely rare. Im very fortunate and lucky to have found this. Blown approx 1840-1860 at a Stoddard glass factory.
Verrrrry nice and verrrrry valuable in mint condition, over 10 k. Great bottle, always love the old crude glass........Andy
