Who Collects Black Glass?

I like black glass. Here is some from 1850's gold rush. Found in Australia.

Here's a bottle probably blown in the Alloa Glassworks (near Glasgow) in the 1820s.

Hey Harry those are gorgeous. How many fluid ounces do they hold. I could only imagine what they would pay for a six pack. lol! Maybe a half penny. Inflation is a bummer.

Here are a couple of "leaners," as I call them. Production, production, production! As long as you could cork them and they were approximately the right size, they passed Quality Control!
