I found this while looking into the marks on the bottom of a huge bottle I found on the side of the street walking home tonight! I'm so bloody excited I found this channel! This is exactly my niche!
Interesting, I love the torpedo and the cod bottles. I need to backtrack and see the entire series of these videos. I know you have a poison bottle with *Not To Be Taken* on them. The other bottles I had no idea about. Thanks, great information.
Great stuff, very interesting. Will have to watch it a couple times no doubt so it sticks. Came for the bottle information stayed for all the other great content.
I found a round medium dark green embossed glass bottle on the tidal flats at Golden Beach on the Sunshine Coast in QLD. I think it's fairly recent as it has a screw top and a black painted aluminium band at the top, but I have no idea what kind of beverage it contained. It's about a litre in capacity and on the base it has the AGM symbol as well as the letter M and number 2 and a code 10172. I'm hoping you can give me a clue as to the date and what the bottle is. I read on one website that the letter is a year, and the number is a week but frustratingly they didn't elaborate on how the letter translates to a year. Perhaps you can elaborate.
I have just moved in to a house and found a number of bottles in the back garden. The block has been in use since the 1920's. Some are nicely shaped and embossed and not all are screw top. One in particular interests me. It is brown with 6 sides with the back side being the widest (about 45mm) the other sides are various widths. On the front narrow side it has "NOT TO BE TAKEN" embossed on it going from the top to bottom and you have to hold sideways to read. The two sides either side of this are dimpled. On the base it has the G above the M then the numbers F1132 below that and a further M below the number. The bottle is 4 inches or 10 cm high with a 3cm neck which is screw top. It is obviously not very old being a screw top but it is an intriguing shape. Any ideas as to what it might have held and/or date?
Sorry for the late reply Martin, I've only just seen this. It sounds a c.1950s or so poison bottle. They came in lots of different styles. If you are on facebook, you can look up "The Ultimate Recycler" and post a picture there, and I'll have a look for you 😊

G'day, I was wondering if you knew anything about Tooheys Stag Schnapps. I found a few botlles back in the early 1980's that were in the ceiling of an old Police building that was on a sheep station in far western NSW. One in particular still has the original label it reads: STAG SCHNAPPS. The Produce of Australia. Bottled by Tooheys Limited Australia. (Picture of Stag) Trade Mark Registered. NETT, 1 PINT, 6 FL, OZ. (On the bottom of bottle) AGM. Nothing on the other 3 sides. I have never been able to find any info on this bottle whatsoever. Cheers Jim.
They sound interesting Jim! I can tell you that they date to about 1920-30 (with AGM on the base). I'd be interested to see a picture. Maybe look up "The Ultimate Recycler" on facebook and share a pic..
I found a bottle buried. It has “ 13 1/2 oz “ on the bottom, it’s a clear bottle with a circular flat head glass stopper. It has a neck that looks like it was once disconnected when it was made, connected at the base of the neck. This bottle is half full with the original liquid. The topper allowed the liquid inside to be preserved through time. It’s impossible to remove the stopper without breaking the bottle so it’s an unknown liquid. First believing it’s was an old perfume, I am now unsure what this bottle is. There are no other markings. It was discovered in Ipswich MA on a property of a home built in the early 1800s
The bottle sounds interesting Savanah, but I probably wouldn't be much help with American found bottles. Still, you'd be welcome to post a pic on my facebook page and I'll have a look 😊
It's not going to be of any collectable value I wouldn't think - other than looking nice on the windowsill. As for age - I'd need to see a pic. You can post a pic on The Ultimate Recycler facebook page if you wish..
@@TheUltimateRecycler my husband thinks there not medicine bottles but cologne and perfume between 1920 and 1930. How do I find out more information on them? Think I will make a short video and see if anyone can help me out

I have a pritchard and chamberlain bottle Bendigo like the one on the left of the table, do you think about 1880
Google tells me they commenced business in 1878, so around 1880-1890 would be likely 😊

Slick as in "clean skin" - yep $10-$20 in my shop 👍
