Anyone here collect antique schnapps bottles?

Here's a couple of Dutch-made bottles for SCHNAPPS AROMATICO from the distiller, J. H. Henke in Schiedam.

The smaller one dates to circa 1890 and was recovered in England.

This larger bottle is older, circa 1860-70s. It was recovered in Guyana. Neither bottle has a pontil scar.

I have always loved Wolfe's bottles. I remembering seeing a picture with several Wolfe's in a window in the sunshine, very nice.

Little rich for my blood though... :wink:

Harry, this is the closest I've come to finding an embossed schnapps.

I'm not sure about this green one. It might be a schnapps but it is not embossed.

I've owned a half dozen or so Wolfe's over the years. A couple were pontilled. I still have a couple. Found a group pic of a Hendrik Walter Aromatic Schnapps I still have.
