Amazed by the great looking glass. I agree with Against the Wind, those bottles deserve their own display case, and they would do it proud.

that's crazy. I like all of it, but I'd say the turtle ink would probably be my favorite

Great collection of late 1800s material. To think what is under our feet and walked over every day.

Nice collection! Folks back then rid themselves of trash were they could; be it outhouse, ravine or tossed below the floorboards. No better place for preservation! Guessing those are post 1870, so no pontiled glass?
