Boston and Sandwich Glass Company GI-29 and another 3 mold

[Steve/sewell]

Here are a couple of nice three mold bottles. The Mc'kearins numbered the barrel shaped one as the GI-29 in a half pint size.The other bottle is a cologne made of very heavy flint glass.The GI-29 is my first charted 3 mold.The bottles are from the 1823 to 1835 time period. These bottles are the latest delve into the Sandwich made glass because of a trip up there earlier this summer to the museum.It is easy to get hooked on these and I would like to collect all of the GI-29 series in shapes and various colors.
