This belonged to my grandmother, my mother and now I have it. It is so strange and I was wondering if anyone might know where it came from.

selling collection of bottles

2010-09-06T18:47:21Z

Hi, I've recently come into possession of a collection of about 200? bottles 34-"do not take" ranging frm 2 1/2 " to 6 "(4 brown the rest colbalt blue), 44 owens and illinois 5" (with handle) clear, 60 6"X 1 1/2" (with long slender neck) colbalt blue, 10 small stoneware pots, small blue vials, miscellaneous others.
Can anyone tell me where I might be able to sell them? I'd like to keep it simple and sell them as a single lot.
I don't think that any of these bottles are very rare or extremely valuable but are all in good shape, no chips or cracks .
Would appreciate any input, thanks

Buried treasure?

2010-09-04T16:11:18Z

Over 20 years ago I dug up a matching purple bottle and vase. They both have seams stopping just below the mouth and on the bottom each are thicker on one side I assume from the glass settling from being buried on thier sides. The bottle is 9.5 inches tall and has one large thread that goes only a little over around once for a twist top. The vase is 5.5 inches tall and is an octagon shape with a round bottom and top. It also has a smooth place where part of the octagon shape was rounded for maybe a label of some sort. Neither glass piece has any markings on them at all. Please help me figure a little out about these.

Hi i have this glass bottle its about 8 inches in height, green in colour and i cant find any markings what so ever on it, seems to be a bottle you use a cork to close no screw lip or anything, It has a seem on both sides of the bottle from the bottom up and its stops just under the lip. From what i have been told so far it quite old and was hand blown if you could write back to this would be much appreciated i can send you photo's when you reply to me im just wanting to kno where its come from, roughly how old is it and if it could be worth any amount of value thanks alot Todd..

Glass Bottle

2010-08-24T18:03:23Z

I found a glass bottle that is about 5 inches tall. It says Kelloggs on the bottom. Under the world Kelloggs it has a square with an O in side of it. On the left side of the square it has the number 6 and on the right of the square it has an 8. I would like to know who made it, why was it made, who it was made for, and what it was used for. Than you.

Corked Vat 69 Whisky Bottle

2010-08-24T17:47:56Z

I'm new here and to collecting bottles. I found a bottle at a garage sale recently and only picked it up because I heard some guy mumbling about how he couldn't believe these bottles were free, so I decided to pick one up. In any case, I've searched and searched on the net but can't find much info about this bottle. It's a corked, dark green bottle. It has "Federal law forbids sale or reuse of this bottle", vat 69 scotch whisky on the base of the bottle, and WM Sanderson and Son, Leith Scotland on the bottom. The writing on the bottle is circular and in the middle there are random letters and numbers shaped into a square, but they are hard to make out.

Any ideas about the value or year it was made?? (I can also add more photos if that's helpful.)

Thanks!!

"tonsiline"

2010-08-04T19:07:20Z

Reading some of your information given on the Historic Glasshouse site I have a couple of questions concerning a clear bottle. Seam is all the way to top of lip so could be machine made and post 1910 correct?

The interesting part at least to me is one side of the bottle reads "tonsiline" the otherside says "for sore throat" and there is an embossed head and neck of a giraffe on the front.

The underside has a "6" on one end and appears to a diamond which looks like a roman no. two or five on it in the center

Does it have any value and is it one in a thousand or a thousand just like it.
Thank you John
