I'm slowly cleaning up some bottles and other glass doodads that I've been finding in the Bahamas. I'll post some more as I clean them. Heres some so far. 20190401_231814.jpg got an intact vintage oil lamp, a sunshine soda, carltons hp sauce,a tiny little gin, and a strange beer that at first I thought was much older but appears to be machine made. 20190401_232437.jpg 20190401_232329.jpg 20190401_232324.jpg these sunshine sodas are from the Bahamas and I've only found a few over the years. 20190401_231915.jpg check out this tiny gin bottle, never seen one this small. This one is just under 6 inches long, by far the smallest one I've ever seen. 20190401_232232.jpg 20190401_232253.jpg 20190401_232101.jpg 20190401_232138.jpg so far I cant find one quite that small, it's got some bubbles and a nice bright color to it. Havnt had to much time to get in the water but I hope to return in may when the wind, waves, and weather are better. Hopefully I'll be diving a little more and not just fishing every day. Thanks for looking and happy hunting !! Wooops.....hers that funny beer, machine made but a cork top ?? Not sure of age on that one ?? 20190401_232540.jpg

That’s a really cool case gin. Always like seeing those in a pit. Never seen one that small though. Send the warmth north please. Good saves! Jgas

Those miniature gin bottles are quite collectible. I saw a fair number of them in Guyana, but the dealers wanted too much for them, in my estimation. I preferred to spend my money on full-size, pontil-scarred case bottles. I bought one miniature as a souvenir for a lady-friend. I don't miss her, but I wish I had the bottle back. :laughing7:

Sorry, I missed this, bart! Those are all cool and I have enjoyed learning a little bit about that gin bottle. I am surprised that oil lamp survived. Great additions to your collection.
