Description

The listing, Set worth looking at 1800's & Early 1900's Dug Bottles has ended.

For thews that were watching this listing I wanted to edit this listing and deleted it by mistake oops



Please ask me any questions you may have on any or all of these bottles all are dug and some will need your dish washing skills .Most are embossed, the two amber bottles cork amber bottles were dug from Holyoke Mass.

The tall bottle in the back is a Scott Emulsion Cod Liver Oil bottle from the 30's showing a fisherman carrying a cod fish over his shoulder.

Also I am offering a Watkins Medicine bottle with large embossing on the front. These are all dig bottles and where buried under ground they are not mint but very cool and great for any collection,

I love your bottles, unfortunately not enough points to bid! I have found all of my old bottles on the river banks, I also find marbles at the river! I have a question if you don't mind? How in the world do you get your bottles so clean? F and will be watching!

LOL Hard work LOL I just use a coat hanger and cut green scrubby pads so they fit in the hole then just bend the coat hanger to reach the shoulder of the bottles .If its real gummy inside such as cough meds get if they have content still in the bottle I just let it soak with Gas inside leaving the bottle in my shed out side .you can also use copper BBs put them inside the bottle using compound powder while shaking the bottle this will help in cleaning the inside with out scratching the bottle Commit also helps for inside the bottle .

Thank you for answering,my bottles are full of mud as you can imagine being at the river, I use a toilet bowl cleaner ( the works ) but it turns the bottles a light blue, so I have been looking for a better way!
