Hello,
This is my first post, and hopefully over the next week or so I can photograph all my bottles to get help identifying them and finding their values. I'm 23 and recently inherited a bottle collection from my grandmother - it consists of about 50 bottles she collected over the past 6 decades or so, purchased mostly at auctions, estate sales, etc. One bottle that she didn't keep on the window sill with most of the others, but that was instead kept in a cabinet away from childrens' hands is about 8 inches tall or so and is considered a historical flask I believe. On one side it has a picture of george washington and says "the father of our country" and on the other side it has a picture of zachary taylor and says "general taylor never surrenders". I think it also has some other words on one of the sides - something about a city and state and maybe glass maker company. I'll take a picture of it this evening but I believe it's authentic. It's a darker blue color, but maybe just plain blue when held up to sunlight. I think I'll post pictures of a lot of these bottles as I unwrap and inspect them. Thanks for your help in advance!
