Description: |
This book is a history and in-depth study of American bottles and flasks. The first eight sections of the book are devoted to wine, spirits, and other bottles, including carboys and demijohns, and snuff, ink, and blacking bottles and jars; medicine and bitters bottles; pattern-molded bottles, flasks, and jugs; smelling bottles and colognes; and figurals. Also included are 79 condensed histories of the glasshouses in which figued flasks are known to have been made. This is an important reference for the bottle collector's library. |
