Holy cow pies, JDug,
You have unearthed some great glass! This and the Cathedral Pepper Sauce are Banner finds for the bottle guys.
I hope you'll visit the
Bottles & Glass Department in the TNet basement. I'd love to see nice close ups in natural light of all of your bottle finds, and so would the other glass guys.
I get the feeling that you are not quite grasping the wonderfulness of these bottles. I saw another post of yours that showed this Bininger Gin, and wanted to find out what it was, cuz you didn't identify it, and the flash photo did not capture the embossing. You've dug some great and valuable bottles from their Civil War resting places. A huge wave of the spade to you!
