Estate sale finds

[sgmorgan1966]

My novice bottle career continues. I got a lot of bottles today. Here are two that I would love help with

 

[Timelypicken]

Whiskey and some sort of medicine bottle.

Both are made with a 3 piece mold, circa 1850s-1880s. Nice old finds.

The amber is the whiskey and the aqua is the med. As stated by others above for age and method of making. You can see from the mold marks there was a piece of mold for the base and two more mold parts for the shoulder and neck.

Pity neither has a label. That would increase value quite a bit. Both are fairly common but decent condition, and the whiskey will always have some interest as it is nice form and color.

I was struck by the resemblance of the amber bottle to the Dyottville Glassworks bottles. It may be a late version or an imitator. BTW, these Dyottville bottles are described as wine bottles by Helen Mckearin in her BOTTLES, FLASKS and DR. DYOTT.
