Here are pieces to an extremely rare pontiled bottle from my home town. There is only one whole one known. I have dug all over the town and have never seen parts to another.

Dug a broken one from a farm dump not far from Lebanon last year. Would love to have a whole one.

Here is another one that got away. I nice whiskey decanter with applied handle from a tiny town on the Mississippi river. The lip and neck are cracked and the handle was knocked off. It is etched with a smoke stack for a steamboat or train and has an eagle. It also has the following working.

Well I managed to get a good McCloud & Wheaton.... sadly it does not have "druggist" on it, but I still like it.

My apologies to this thread for posting an undamaged bottle. However, my next entry will make you cry if you like St. Louis pontiled sodas.

Here are two rare St. Louis pontiled sodas. A cracked blue J. Cairns & Co and a cobalt Smith and Fotheringham with half the top gone.
