| Beautiful Pre-Civil War "Black Glass" Ale Bottle |
|
| Here is a Beautiful Pre-War, Pontilled Black Glass Ale Bottle! Just a wonderful bottle with an amber/greenish color and whittle all over the whole bottle. Single collar applied lip, and deep open pontil. Lots of bubbles, and faint indications of being blown in a three piece mold. This bottle has no cracks, dinks, or damage of any sort that I can see, and displays beautifully. The amber tint to the glass makes me think it is likely 1840s to 1850s at latest, but still would not be uncommon in a Civil War Camp. Measures 2.5 inches diameter by approximately 9 & 3/8ths inches tall. A Beautifully Displaying Early Bottle ! $35 plus shipping

| Nice Civil War or Pre-Civil War Black Glass Whiskey Bottle |
|
| Here is a Nice Civil War Or Earlier Black Glass Whiskey Bottle ! This is a short squat pattern, with the applied double collar lip, open pontil, and stress marks in the neck. No cracks, chips or dinks anywhere, though it does have lots of exterior cloudiness from being in the ground, most of which should clean up. Though black looking from the outside, this one is a honey amber color, held up to the light, which I think dates it quite a bit earlier than the Civil War, and possibly even Gold Rush era. Measures 8.25 inches tall, by approximately 2.75 inches in diameter. A Good Early Whiskey, typical of those found in Civil War Campsites ! SOLD

| Beautiful Crude Pre/Early Civil War Umbrella Ink - Iron Pontil |
|
| This is Just About The Crudest Pre-War Umbrella Inkwell, I have seen ! First off, it has an iron pontil, instead of the open pontil usually seen on most of the 1850s to 1863, examples. Next, the neck is not fully upright, but my vision says, tilting a bit to one side. Lastly, instead of the usual "rolled lip", this one has a crude "ring lip" applied after the main body was blown. Nice aqua color, full of seed bubbles, and just an outstanding example of a pre to early war example of an Officer's or Soldier's Umbrella Ink well ! No cracks, chips, or dinks of any kind. Recovered NW Arkansas. 2.875 inches tall by 2.375 inches dia. SOLD

| Very Nice Iron Pontiled Aqua Civil War Period Medicine Bottle |
|

Here's a beautiful example of an 1850s Medicine bottle in cylinder shape ! Actually could date 1850s thru about 1863, or the middle of the Civil War, when pontil marks began to disappear. This one is a nice aqua/green color with a great applied collar lip, and very obvious rough Iron pontil . Lots of stress marks also visible on the neck. Approximately 7 inches tall by 2 & 1/2 inches diameter, with no chips or cracks anywhere. Does have some interior staining/frost, especially on one side, but still makes a beautiful display ! Many a doctor or wounded soldier on both sides, saw and used bottles identical to this one ! SOLD
