    Those are really cool! I am with Lodge Scent, one would be filled with whiskey. Cork it and when friends come over, pull that out.

    Wow , those are really cool ! Congratulations ! Do you now if they refilled those bottles for extended usage when purchasing more liquids or just tossed them ? I tend to think people were more frugal then and not so wasteful as today.

    Wow man, those are some absolutely incredible bottles, especially being complete like that. I just love the look of mallet and onion bottles, they just scream colonial America. What type of site are you finding these at?
    I <3 colonial relics!
