1755 hand etched Black glass bottle with a boat...

[Calabash Digger]

I am very fired up about this bottle. This is the second hand etched black glass bottle I have found in my life. This one is very special as it has the date , initials, and a boat etched into it. This bottle will never leave my collection. Very crude looking bottle with air bubbles and a great color.

Now that is a real beauty Calabash!
Who wouldn't want that in their personal collection of glass.
It certainly checks alot of boxes.
But to have it etched with initials, date, and the boat.
Home run?
No man you hit that right out into the frigging parking lot.
Congratulations on the recovery.
