need info on bottles I found years ago

[cowseatmaize]

Are all you've shown so far all from different houses? Could the one I thought a French wine be from the same house as the Keene flask? I may have to rethink that date on the wine.

All from different houses unfortunately I wish they were from the same to give me some kind of idea what time frame they're from.

Except for the three they seam mostly from just post civil war to 1890.Here's some links for you.http://www.sha.org/bottle/index.htmhttp://www.bottlemysteries.com/welcome/

Well larrybuilders, I think you need to read my write up for newbies = regarding what to show or mention about old glass bottles. The first question is: Are there vertical seams on the finish? The finish being the top neck of the bottle for cork, cap or what ever to seal the contents. The middle bottle looks like it might have a blowpipe tubular pontil on the glass. That glass would have been left of the blowpipe of the bottle made before it by the bottle blower. The bitters bottles are so collectable that some one would want it. Email me if you want the newbie letter and check the homepage' RED Matthews <bottlemysteries@yaho.com>

I'm going to say that the open-pontiled wine is much older then the rest, I would give 20 bucks for that any day (as long as I am seeing what I think I am)

It is a neat looking bottle with nice color.

Not a bad trio of bottles! Pontiled ale is worth $50-75, at least that's my guess. I had one priced for $50 and it sold in a heartbeat.
