Awesome finds! Please post some pictures of all of those once you get them cleaned up - especially the tall green one. Thanks!!!

Good finds. That is a very unique picture. Almost an impressionist study, I like how the color of the dock in the background "pops"

The amber blob top reads "S.A. Cottonwold Brewery" its a non applied tooled top (1880-1910). The green fooled me underwater. It looked like a black glass cylinder! Unfortunetely, once cleaned I found that the seam runs through the top. We actually did a few nice bottle dives over the winter. I will post som additional images.
