Dr. J. Moore's Essence Life, 1820-1840.[]

Unsure as to actual value, Kovels 11th edition has it @ $90.00......I paid $20.00., perfect condition. Has white gung inside, looks like the sickness but isn't. It comes out easy but I prefer to leave it..dunno but it might be orig contents residue.[8D]

Some great bottles in this thread, I'll take photo's as soon as we get some sunlight here [] .

I was handling one of those wide mouth case bottles exactly the same as Cliff's last week, they are a stunning bottle.

Hey Cliff...

"...not for sale..." Everything has a price, didn't you know that?

Heres the oldes bottle in my collection Its a large light olive green open pontiled snuff mad around 1790-1810. I dug it from a large very early privy in downtown baltimore. With a bunch of black glass cylinders of the same age.

this pic is of my share of the goods from this privy dig my digging partner got an almost identical group of bottles including a nice amber pontiled snuff.

I think this demijohn is pretty old - anyone have a guess on the date? It has a huge open pontil on the bottom.

My oldest. Not sure exactly how old. Maybe Colonial?
