    How Rare is this Bottle?

    Thank you for reply and useful information. Looks good with my other Caswell bottles.

    How Rare is this Bottle?

    Please Note: This bottle should NOT be confused with the much more common Caswell Hazard and Caswell Mack blue bottles.

    How Rare is this Bottle?

    I now have several bottles, including the one pictured, for which I have not seen another example, nor can I find another example online or in print. Have you seen another example of this bottle? CASWELL, MASSEY & CO. NEW YORK AND NEWPORT BIM, tooled top, 8 1/4" tall, 16 oz, made by Whitall...

    Wanted: Wm R Warner & Co. Pint Square or Oval Bottle

    It is very similar to what I have but clearly different. I am looking for 7 1/2 to 8 inch 16oz examples (see attached). Your example appears to be smaller with rounded shoulders. Perhaps a 12oz? Thanks for sharing.

    Bottle Lamp

    See attached pictures. Story: Yesterday I was shopping at my favorite honey hole and there is the lamp area. Just the typical cheap thrift store lamps. But wait….. notice anything? You need a keen eye…. What’s this? Let’s remove the ugly 1960’s shade and what do we have? Let’s remove the...

    Rushton & Co. Chemists New York Bottle

    Thanks Roy, There are a few 10 1/4 inches tall "RUSHTON CLARK & Co. CHEMIST'S, NEW YORK" bottles that have sold at auction but your 6 1/2 inches tall RUSHTON'S and my 6 1/2 tall version may be the only examples. Does anyone have a reference book that shows these bottles?

    ID dug 1860s Cathedral Pickle

    Below are only Keyhole Pickle Jars that made it to a major auction. Pretty rare. And these are both 8 1/2" versions but it gives you an idea of the range depending on the color and grade. If indeed the 11.5” version is even more rare north of $1,000 definitely and over $2,000 is possible with...

    ID dug 1860s Cathedral Pickle

    Hello Bob, welcome to the community. You will get your answer here, but we will need a little more info than you have provided. And as always, pictures tell 1,000 words.

    Rushton & Co. Chemists New York Bottle

    I can't find any information on this particular 6 1/2 inch "Rushton & Co. Chemists New York" bottle. Has anyone out there ever seen another example of this bottle? Is it listed in any reference book? or am I holding the only known example?

    I need some help with this one.

    I own a few calabash bottles and have seen and held dozens more. I'd vote for "Glass Blow 100 student's first effort". Just poorly made all around.

    Lot of EAPG Miniature Oil Lamps

    I went to my favorite honey hole today and picked up this lot of EAPG Miniature Kerosene Oil Lamps for $40. All in excellent condition with original shades. I can't find any of these designs online so they must be very rare. Anybody know anything about these?

    M. J. & Co. bottle ??

    You all did so well with the last embossing mystery (RC&E = Reed, Carnick & Edwards) let's try another. This bottle stands 8 inches tall and holds 16oz. It is BIM with a tooled prescription lip. Across the front in a square is "M. J. & Co." The period after the J is faint but it is there. I...
