I'm guessing the vintage about 1865/66.

Amazing how close the two bottoms are with the bubbles in nearly the EXACT same layout on the bases of both bottles, I'm scratching my head about this....Here are the side by side pic's...

Logic would strongly suggest that the owner of the bottle in my reference was one past owner of John's bottle today.
You might think that butttttttt, if you look closely there are differences in the bubbles....I thought the same thing until I had the pic's side by side....Unless it's the light playing tricks and they are the same, the two large bubbles look to have other bubbles in them and the bubble at top right looks like a different shape to me...Jim

They are the same bottle. The odds of having that particular size and arrangement of bubbles show up in two different bottles is essentially zero.

This could be good news if you consider the fact that now there is nothing proving that there is more than one of these in existence! :notworthy:

PS. having tried to take clear pictures of bottles before I can attest to the difficulty in getting any kind of clarity and consistency. If you just look at the locations of the major bubbles using the key-mold seam as a referrence you can see that they are the same. You could give an expert glass blower this mold and he wouldn't be able to reproduce this exact pattern in 1000 years! LOL

I've been studying both pic's hard,,,,, I think they are the same bottle ,,, any differences are probably from the difference in cameras,lighting,photographers,etc,etc. Nice bottle by the way :icon_thumright:,have not seen one before,,,but that doesnt mean a thing.
