These two mini Harvard rye bottles. One with double collar and other a crude single(probably not typical but looks cool). ImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1473993191.992399.jpg ImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1473993258.141913.jpg

Then there is this big 7 inch tall J Personeni New York with a big crown embosses. Also have a smaller size and both are blown in mold. ImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1473993352.607954.jpg ImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1473993381.058941.jpg

Can not find information on this three sides excelsior sewing machine oil New Bedford mass made in USA. ImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1473993515.675157.jpg ImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1473993534.660555.jpg

Then there is this odd ball with an applied handle. Hochstadters finest steinhager from New York.

Lots of other stuff I'd like to post but these are currently on my odd ball list. Would like to see what people have to say about these. Any information would be helpful. Thanks and happy/safe hunting.

(from Wikipedia)
Steinhäger is a type of German gin, a spirit flavoured with juniper berries. The name is derived from the Westphalian municipality of Steinhagen, the only place where it is permitted to be produced.

The steinhagen is very interesting . . . The embossing references the Pure Food and Drug Act of 1906, so that provides a not-earlier-than date. It might well be pre-Prohibition, especially if it has a hand-tooled lip. Prohibition put lots of distilleries out of business, and the Hochstadter distillery would be my next line of research.
