Bottles far from home, how far away????

Hello RED,

I have been looking and looking for a recent thread on early Bottle Machine finishes that you were involved with to no avail. I found what I think is an early ABM beer bottle with seams the like of nothing I have seen, or noticed, before. Do you remember where that thread was?

Jim, sorry to ask extraneous questions on your thread. I think you would have a great Historical Patterson display. Will the Society work with you? Do they have good resources you can use? I hope you will give us a photo tour when your exhibit gets the Official Historical Society Seal of Approval.

What were the original contents of the glass bottle?  It is really great embossing...but standing up it would be sideways...so I was just wondering?  I have some various stoneware bottles but not these kind...very nice collection!

Thanks for sharing the pics! 

Hi Tinna, here is a great link to Philip Pfannebecker and what he bottled...

It is so interesting how much info we derive from the past - that comes from a census...the census polls done today I am sure will provide lots of info for our future generations!

Now I understand how important his bottles are to your collecting - since he was a bottler in "Paterson" (since you collect Paterson bottles)!

Thanks for the link!
