Shoe Box o Bottles

[bombboy]

Picked these up the other day, hadn't got to cleaning them yet. Posted the Parker the other day, wondering on the flared lip.

Here's the line up;

E.E. Miner Gloversville - local blob I've been hunting
Parker's Ginger Tonic - recent post
Schenk's Pulmonic Syrup - not OP but in great shape
1/2 pint strap side brown flask - cant seem to get enough of these - really crude example
Fitzgerald Bros Troy NY - another nice blob although somewhat common for the area

There was also a local pharm - Van Vliet out of Johnstown, NY - larger size from the one I picked up last year, got it soaking right now.

Well, thats it, nothing special, thanks for looking.

I believe I remember looking at that Parker's and the comment was made that it is not, IMO, called a FLARED LIP but rather a LTC or Long Tapered Collar. Quite a difference in bottle collecting terms, usually indicates a considerable difference in age.

That IS a nice group of bottles, we would almost NEVER find such nice items of that age in my area.

Thanks Jim and Jim, always appreciate the comments. Slim pickins indeed, havent gotten out much this year and doesnt look like much of a diggin season til after summer. But I can always hunt garage sales and the like.
