Everybody's too quiet

Come on guys/gals, i want to hear some bottle talk and see some pictures. Anyone got some nice ones in their collection they can share with us?

I wish I had some new ones to show you. Thanks for reminding me that I have nowhere to dig right now lol.

 

[Bass]

They don't have to be new. I'd like to see anything someone is proud of.lol

Hey ba,

I'm not so sure how proud I am, but I do kinda like this ole pumpkin.

​

I kinda like this crusty salt shaker, too.

I am rather proud of this little ink barrel though.

Nice Surf. Did you dig those?

 

[surf]

Yes sir, I did indeed. My "collection" such that it is, were all dug by yours truly.

Thanks for the Lone Ranger action, good sir.

In post #7 second pic on the right. The Sapphire Blue bottle embossed Dr. E. C's Balm and is open pontil from the 1850's. The product was Dr. E. Cooper's Universal Magnetic Balm and is out of Rochester N.Y. Only one of these in this color I've seen.

Road dog. That is definitely a nice find. Congratulations. Did you dig it or buy it off someone?

 

[Road Dog]

Bought that one. I dug a Flange lip 1870's one a long time ago that kinda got me hooked on collecting them.

 

[Bass]

That is really great that you have the add to go with the bottle. Makes have a little more value in my opinion. That is cool

Road Dog . . . I wish you'd stop posting images of your pontil-scarred medicines 'cause it is such a humbling experience for collectors like me to see.

Here's an image I have posted before in the hope that someone will have a mold or color variant that I can add to my mini-collection.

Thanks, I thinking those are Mustards? Pontilled? Nice colors! I'll keep a look out for them.
