A local person I met a couple of years ago, saw my bottle collection and was inspired to go out looking for old bottles near his home. Of course he hit on an 1850s dump with pontil bottles right away. Most collectors around here could look for years and years and never find an untouched 1850s dump. I don't have a picture of the complete bottle but included is the bottom of a Tupper & Southwich, NY eight sided green soda, his first ever find. Also some other pointil inks and medicines. Interesting he insists he has no interest in collecting bottles.
