I just looked through my collection and picked out some of my favourite bottles. These are the 6 medicines I chose.
They're in reverse order, so the last one shown is my top favourite. Take a look at my favourite sodas and beers too!

#6 - Erie Glass Works, Port Colborne

Sorry the picture is so big. This bottle was given to me by an antique seller in Port Colborne, who found it in his driveway. It's broken, but he found all the pieces and taped it back together. Even though it's a slick, it's a very rare bottle. The Erie Glass Works was only open for two years, 1895-97. I'd like to find an embossed bottle from this glass works!

Hey Dario,

Are'ya gonna show us the makers mark on this guy?

Try as I might, I'm not seeing them. Were you suddenly called away, got all busy with something else, and forgot all about this thread?

I don't want to post any more pictures on this thread until I can get them resized properly. Once that's done I'll finish this thread and the other two as well.

Can any mods delete this thread? I can't get the pictures to resize properly.

PS. Surfaceone, you have a picture for everything! Where do you get these pictures from?

Yes, I agree. It would be nice to see the Erie marking. Please post.

Sorry guys! I can't get this forum to work for me. Pictures just WILL NOT work no matter how small I make them.
I am an active poster at therustybunch.com. They have a Bottle Collecting section that was just added and I will be showing off some local soda bottles there soon.

Dude,

Are'ya gonna let some technical difficulties get in your way? How'd you get that huge photo above on here? Try that same way, but with less pixels. Those rusty guys aren't gonna give two hoots about the Erie Glass Works, whereas we're all about that stuff, here in the Blue pages.

Was it all over when I first had picture issues, hell no! “Nothing’s over until we say it is! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?â€
