Hand-Blown??

[Linda B.]

[8|]One of 2 smililar bottles my father collected in 1969 on the Las Cruces Trail, Panama Canal Zone. Clear, no seams, with bubbles and a dip-mold(?) bottom where you can see the blow rod (correct terminology??) appears to have been broken off. When I tap my finger nails on the glass there is a different tone to the sound of the glass, like it is thinner than usual!! The bottle does sit angled as shown in the picture.
Comments gladly welcomed.

It appears to be a free blown bottle (not blown in a mold). There would be no seams. They are typically very thin glass and slightly asymetrical shaped.
The lip looks like its sheared and fire polished, but its a little hard to tell from photos.

Nice bottle. I agree with G.H. Pre 1885. out of my current range of experience. Someone will tell you more i'm sure.
