Hi Renee, please send me a couple pictures and condition report to ricksbottleroom@gmail.com thanks
I'm looking for information about a flask I have. I believe it to be a pictorial flask (picture under glass) of an unknown politician. It has a screw cap (silver) and was found in a trunk in a barn with some other relics on property I bought back in the 80's. The property has a LOT of history so any information you can provide will be greatly appreciated. It appears to be dated to the early part of the 19th century.

Hi Rick,

Re your post: BOTTLE OF THE WEEK { 7~10~11 } RARE W.H. WOOD ~ DURHAM
I am Councillor William Henry Wood's great granddaughter. I am emailing to correct you on the information supplied in this post..
He was born in or near Bedlington in Northumberland, and moved to Durham in 1890 with his wife Annie.
In 1891 he started Wood & Watson Ltd, mineral water manufacturers in Gilesgate, Durham.
He was twice mayor of the city in 1909/10 and 1919/20 (as pictured).
The W.H. Wood Memorial Cup was given by his family to Durham City in 2008 and is displayed in the Town Hall together with an acknowledgement of his civic services.
Further artefacts and memorabilia of Wood & Watson Ltd may be seen in Durham Heritage Centre.
The architect you write about in the post, William Herbert Wood is no relation so far as we are aware, and certainly has no connection to the bottles displayed.
W.H. Wood embossed bottles were often found in recent years by trespassers digging on a bankside adjoining Wood & Watsons factory (now housing)!

Rick,
First off, I think your site is great! Second I LOVE your Green James H. Holmes bottle!! I grew up in Auburn NY (live in N. Syracuse NY now) I collect Auburn NY breweriana. I have many James Holmes bottles, even a killer Holmes pocket mirror( Whitehead & Hoag?) But that green bottle of yours, KILLER!!! Just thought I would share.
Thanks, Scott
Hi kathrine,thanks for stopping by and joining..
The Crosse & Blackwell® brand has been a beloved British tradition since 1706.
Our products reflect a sampling of England’s great culinary influences: unique products with the finest ingredients, exotic recipes and robust flavor. Originally founded as West and Wyatt, the company was purchased in 1830 by Edmund Crosse and Thomas Blackwell. Today the Crosse & Blackwell brand is part of The J.M. Smucker Company family of products.
The bottles you have with good labels are an interesting find for sure, are the bottles embossed with any writing? i am sure they have CB on the base probablly. Value....15.00+ each range, depends on look of labels and whether or not they are also embossed.
Hi. I came across your site doing some research and have decided that it might be easier to ask somebody who hopefully knows than spending more hours searching.
I came across two bottles in the basement of the house of a very old relative of mine the other day. I have never seen these before and decided to look for some info on them. The only thing I have found are some ads in newspapers dated from 1930 to 1935. They are Crosse and Blackwell Lime Cup bottles. One has no label and the other has approx. 98% of the label on it. Can you believe they are still sea.ed and full?
I know the company started in Britain in 1708 or 1706 can't remember which but it is one of them. I don't know when these bottles are from and how much they are worth. Can you help?

Hi Rick, Great site- I can look at bottles all day long. I cannot find information on an old bottle that was given me in the 1970s. It is a emerald green colour, approx 8 inch, flattened hex, slender ( 1 X .5 inches at the base, tapering up to 2 inch shoulders until it narrows back to the neck) with C.L.G CO. on the bottom. I have been surfing to locate info on it but cannot find anything on the bottle, only the company. Most sincerely, Richie
