You always have such nice bottles Chris. Congrats on the locals. I am getting two rare locals tomorrow morning myself. They certainly aren't the age you get though.

Love the light green Schaum- always have liked those, something about the small letters, shape of the bottle, and the nice color - has everything going for it.

Cindy, I really like the Schaum's also they are a great looking bottle. I have 3 now, not the best color run but I'm still working on it.

And here is the W. Coughlan / Balto porter with his cousins William Coughlan is my favorite bottler and probably Baltimore's most prolific. He was in business from 1842 until 1874 he died in January of 1875 at age 65.

I currently have 10 different Coughlan molds with at least two more known to me that I would like to get examples of. Many of these molds come in quite a few different color and lip style variations.

Great bottles, do you have a Stone "Roonies" I was out there in Baltimore once and took part in the digging of one but didn't get to take it home, I've wanted one ever since.

 

[baltbottles]

Can't say I have a "ROONIES" but I do have a ROONEY is this like the bottle you found?

Chris

 

[luckiest]

Yup, that looks a lot like it, how hard are they to get? I feel like I need one.

 

[baltbottles]

I've seen about a half dozen of them in collections they are not very common.

Amazing stuff! I love the idea of collecting all the known bottles from a certain time period in a large city. I could never do it for Newark, there are just too many bottles! I guess I'm doing the same thing for my local towns, although obviously small town bottles are a lot less documented than stuff from Baltimore.
