Albany Glass Works

[nydigger]

Any one know anything about Albany Glass Works? This antique shop I frequent had an emerald green flask. It had Washington's bust on the front surrounded by Albany Glass Works Ny and on the back it had a ship. It looked crude, old, and even had a pontil. The guy didn't know much about it, except that it was more than likely a rep. Worth getting or leave it?

The bottle is heavily reproduced... Some are really crude but I haven't seen one with a real authentic open pontil, just the solid glass type...
