Look at this stunner I found today! I am stoked to say the least about this bottle. How did the person get the date carved into it with out breaking it?? IMG-3745.jpgIMG-3743.jpgIMG-3744.jpgIMG-3746.jpgIMG-1790.jpgBLACK-GLASS-1750.jpg

Like I said before I don't know how you get anything done but think about getting back in that river. That's such an unbelievable find. I think you should reroute that river. Banner for sure!
 

And low and behold there she is up on the banner board...wooo hooo !! Congrats calabash she's a real beaut...worthy of banner for sure !!
 

That's a DREAMER!!!!!!! CONGRATZ brother....
 

Congratulations on the Banner! Well deserved. That's a museum quality piece due to the personal inscription and it's dated so you know exactly when it was used.
 

Wow, that is an amazing find. It was on the banner almost as soon as you posted it. Now we can accurately date that style of Mallet bottle :laughing7:
 

amazing find .... wow !

Simply incredible. Congratulations on an unbelievable find. I wish that bottle could talk to tell us the full story.

PS - Maybe that date is the first example of a β€œbest if used by” date?:laughing7:

I was wishing it was full of Rum :P
 

Nice to see a bottle honored as a banner find.

Your photo reminds me of something that would be on the cover of a 1970’s treasure magazine.
 

I take that back.

2 banners... and the more I think of it the more I cannot believe this has not gotten more votes.

Come on peeps... think about this for a minute longer.

Perhaps more would join my opinion on this CD. :)

Personally... I think this is "museum quality"... IF I were you... I would protect this one with padded case etc.

You WILL NEVER... see another one... ever.

IF date was the date that sucker was made...(which it could be older and date added later)... it is 270 years old... UNFOUND for that long... UNBROKEN for that long.

heh
This is my favorite reply to your post CD. β€œYou will never see another one.” Take it off the walmart shelf and put it in a padded case before that jewel crashes to the ground. I promise you it is that good!

I agree. Get it off that shelf before you have an earthquake or other natural or man made disaster!
 

Congrats on an excellent find and your banner Calabash. That is one nice bottle.
 

Thanks everyone for all the comments!
 

Congrats that’s a wild find
 

I've never seen or heard of one. Congratulations on the find of a life time and making the banner!
 

Just keeps outdoing himself. Congrats Calabash!
