Applied top, pint, circa 1900. A hammer whittled green Fredericksbug beer from San Francisco. This is the much scarcer and more desirable pint size. There is a small chip on the bottom of the top and 1/2" check associated with it. Other than that, a beautiful bottle.

Applied top, quart, mid 1880s. Here is a bottle that is rarely offered for sale. Finding an applied top 80s quart beer for sale in any condition is hard enough, but one like this with hardly any issues is almost impossible. Arnold & Rudolph Postel were beer bottles in San Francisco in the mid 1880s who created this beautiful bottle featuring a large and detailed walking bear. Usually, these beers are full of case wear, stain, chips, and bruises, but this example is better than most known examples with just a small manufacturing issue straddling the applied top and travelling down into the neck of the bottle. There are also a few very minor pecks on the edge of the base. See photos.

11.5", quart, circa 1880s. Here is a rare Honolulu beer that is rarely seen or offered for sale. This example appears to have been professionally cleaned and has a few small chips on the side of the lip along with the occasional ping or scuff on the body of the bottle. Overall, a decent example.

9.25", applied top, smooth base, 1860s. An early and scarce jar from New York. This example was dug in California and appears to have been professionally cleaned. There is a 1/4" radiated potstone, 3/8" check, a few open bubbles, and some etching on the interior, see photos.

7", machine made. A beautiful aqua Mason loaded with amber swirls. Some light exterior scuffs, but overall in great condition.

8.75", half gallon, ground lip, 22 on base. A nice medium amber with a decent strike. Very shallow open bubble on reverse interior near lip, see photos.

7.25", quart, ground lip, 11 on base. Great example full of whittle, no issues. A few people have asked about the color of this jar and we just want to confirm that it is aqua. We've added an additional photo of it in backlight.

9.5", half gallon, ground lip, S 9 on base. Lid embossed: Patented May 25 1886. A beautiful example of a Globe in a light butterscotch amber (much lighter in natural light). In addition to the great color, there is a slight two-tone shade with areas of lighter glass. A few small manufacturing flakes on the lip. Moderate corrosion to the bail.

7.5", quart, ground lip, 50 on base. Lid embossed: Patented May 25 1886. Medium amber, no issues. Moderate corrosion to the bail.

6", pint, ground lip, 21 on base. Lid embossed: Patented May 25 1886. A nice bright amber, nearing yellow in natural light. A few small chips on the lip, and some dirt stuck to glass on inside of base, see photos. Moderate corrosion to the bail.

7.25", quart. Here is a Western blown Gem Jar dating from this mid to late 1870s in a rare lime green color. These Western blown examples were being blown by the San Francisco Glass Works as early as 1874 and are desirable for their rich colors and clean glass.

Applied top, quart, early 1880s. This rare Portland Oregon jar comes in both a half gallon and quart size, both rare, with about six mint quarts known. This is one of the two known green toned examples, and unlike others, has no issues on the top. There are only two other Western blown wax sealer jars, the San Francisco Glass Works and the Cutting & Co jars. It may be a long time until another M. Seller is offered. There is a crude bubble on the side of the bottle that melted into itself during manufacture, see photos.

12.25", iron pontil, rolled lip, 1850s. This is a large and unusual pickle jar that was dug in California Gold Country many years ago. It has fluted shoulders, a ribbed lower body and is full of beautiful whittle and tiny champagne bubbles. There is a small potstone (non-radiated) and a shallow open bubble on the interior. We've seen one or two of these jars in the past, but all the other examples had heavily stained glass and no character. This will make a unique and beautiful addition to any early food bottle collection!

7", quart, circa 1870s. This is an extremely rare Victory jar that is usually found in shades of aqua. This example is clear and the only one we've seen this color with possibly one other known example.

Circa 1860s. Here is a vertical Greeley's in a beautiful coppery pink puce color. It's difficult trying to describe this color so please look at the photos of the bottle in natural light and make your own conclusions. We have pictured it next to a straight amber bottle for comparison. This example is in great condition and the only thing we can find is a small crush on the edge of the lip and the common manufacturing fissures between the neck and top, please see photos.

Applied top, 1860s, smooth base, pint. A solid example of an early Udolpho Wolfe's Schnapps that was recently dug in San Francisco. This example is a bright olive green and is full of seed bubbles.

Applied top, circa 1860s, large dot and key mold base. A rare 1860s mold Hostetter's recently found in California's Gold Country next to a Vonthofen's Schnapps. The right side panel has five small rivet marks. One tiny flake off the neck and light interior haziness, see photos.

Applied top, 8 ray star on base. A popular Western bitters put up in an aqua 1/6th of a gallon cylinder. Medium aqua, light whittle.

Applied top, early 1880s. Another popular Dr. Henley's product with some decent whittle in a pretty golden amber color.

Applied top, 1880s. Here is the square variant of the Celery, Beef, and Iron that is very hard to come by. Nice clean Western glass with some light crudity. There is an open bubble on the interior shoulder. See photos.
