I love collecting antique bottles and I love history. I found that one of my favorite parts about bringing home a new bottle was finding out the story: who made it, what kinds of things were going on at the time, what is actually in the bottle?
I love searching through ancestry records and newspapers to find out about our person. Usually there are some interesting twists and turns in the story, and thats my favorite part. We have seen some VERY interesting ways people have died, we've seen some really happy stories, and some really sad ones. But I think thats what we cling to. They were people, and had problems that we have today. We can relate to them on a more personal level.
My hope by making this channel, is that when you pick up a bottle, (whether you dig for them or buy them), you can come here and learn the story, and then that bottle you are holding becomes a little piece of history, and maybe it means a little more to you than just holding a bottle. Happy Hunting!

Can you research the history of the genesee bottling co utica ny? Also include the images of the chill bottle I'll put the photo of both on my channel because my email won't let me send photos just texts.
That chill bottle is cool, but i cant find any info on it. But ill put genesee on my list
I love the bottles that come out of Baltimore I am from Baltimore
The one thing I like about your videos I always learn something
Thanks 😄
Hey, I don’t know if this is possible. Could you do one about the Sayman medicine company?
looks like it will be a fun one. ill put it in the mix. :)
I recently bought a quart size circa 1950s Hellmann's jar. I can't find anywhere a pictoral list of Hellmann's jars through the decades.
Sometimes that information is just not available. I bet hellmans themselves have an archive. You could maybe write/email them :)
Those Italian pizzelle cookies often have anise in them
i didnt know that. Interesting!
What a Beautiful embossing ! Loved the back story research too ;)
Thanks!
I remember Durkee making grated coconut. In the '60's they put out a series of pamphlet/cookbooks of patterns for "fancy" party cakes. There was a butterfly, a bear, a balloon, a turtle, an elephant, a heart, a shamrock. So many I can't remember. And all covered with Durkee food coloring dyed Durkee coconut. Mother was always making one to fit the occasion. Great memories !!! Thanks
I did come across some of those advertisements with the coconut :)
I'm named after the stuff. And hate licorice.
Pretty name, nasty candy. I don't know how Italians drink that Ouzo !!! LOL
It is an acquired taste, thats for sure. I happen to like black licorice. Im the only one in my family that does. If you had asked me before this video what black licorice flavoring was, i wouldve thought it was called black licorice LOL! Because ive never tasted it any place else!
This was so interesting. Thanks for sharing!
Mmmm I could chow down on Durkee's Fried Onions :)
Durkee is a common name in cookery. I enjoyed their history!❤
I have this bottle with the original label and liquid.
i really love when theres contents left. i always try to smell it LOL
Hi, I hope you are well. Anyway, I'm watching your video at 2:32 am on Oct 30th. 2024 . Earlier this evening i dug up the same type of bottle you found in Andover Massachusetts. It is in pristine condition, no chips and scratches. This is how i found your you tube video. I Love researching my finds. This video was very interesting, thank you for making it.😁
Hi Brandy. good job. the Arnholt & Schaefer bottle is a nice one. they also come in amber bottles. you find them quite a bit in New Jersey around Camdon .
hi Brandy. trying to track down some bottles is almost impossible. It was an easy business to get in to and most were short lived. The Hutchinson is fairly common mostly in 1890s and early 1900 dumps. beer was never used in them. and I have not seen one in amber.
Just found my first swamp root bottle the other day. It’s my favorite bottle for sure.
Awesome find!
Aurelius was my great great great grandfather, thank you for making this video. He died of pneumonia while on that ship, so that's probably why it's not mentioned in the ship's history.
Interesting!
@antiquebottlestories And I always thought his name was cool too
@@autumnbooth8333 It is. Ive been doing my family tree for over 20 years, and there are some really cool names in there. Like i have a guy named Orange, and he was married to a a girl named Tryphena. I wonder what their nicknames were? LOL
@antiquebottlestories I think the most interesting names I have seen on my family tree are Moses, Beulah, Hopestill, Spaulding, Myrtilla,Wirt,Stillman,Rouse,Dorcas and Eglin
What's weird is that when I look at some places, they get Aurelius's wife's name wrong they called her Ethel but her name was Ellen,Ethel is the name of their daughter Ethel May Hinds Bisbee
this channel reminds me of Vintage HLC Show and Tell. Enjoy these stories and info.
I really enjoyed your story telling of this brewery.
Lots of breweries were shut down during prohibition. You have to give these guys credit, they kept on trying!❤
This is so cool. We just found one of these bottles on my family property! Been in the family since 1876.. thank you for the cool story!
Thats an awesome find! Glad you found the video helpful!
I've spent time researching commercial histories, and it still shocks me how often every detail of their existence is just lost without trace. But never say die - one day that breakthrough may come!
The bottle who remains anonymous...I like it! A mystery!❤
Post everything - I always like your videos
This was so interesting! I hope someone else can fill in the information gsps for you on here...
Can you do a video on the mohawk valley bottling co and include the chill bottle images? Thanks! The bottle images are on my community tab on my channel.
I see a few of my relatives have chimed in already, but I wanted to share a few things you may find interesting :) Before immigrating, Gwyn was a professional Rugby player, and represented Great Britain in several international matches: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gwyn_Thomas_(rugby) There was a break in his career when he was drafted to serve in WWI. I recall when I was a child someone mentioning that Lois came from money, so my guess is her family funded the company and wanted her listed as the president. Thank you so much for being interested and sharing this video! I'm going to have to spend some time looking into our connection with NeHi. I'm familiar with the soda, but I didn't realize it may have been the name of the company at some point. I know the only bottle I've seen that wasn't Pepsi was an orange soda - it must have been a nehi!
im so glad you added more details to the story! How cool is that?
Just came across a bottle in central California. No chips but dirty. Gotta clean it up.
Did I miss the part of you talking about the aunt Jemima glass bottle!?
as far as i know jemima didnt have a glass bottle
My husband just found a similar Bumsteads Worm Syrup bottle in a Phila, Pa. Suburb. Thanks for the great info! I love learning the history behind antique & vintage items ❤
well, done Brandy. they are cool bottles. when I lived in Ohio, I dug a few of them. there is also an amber variant. thanks for the info.
I just got a tiny embossed one for tablets. Thanks for the history!
I thrifted a bottle of pinex today. Why am i fascinated by the idea of virtually visiting pinex’s founder’s abandoned mansion’s remplacement new mansion from 2016. This is outstanding, i love the level of detail, and i want to be friends.
This made me smile. Sometimes when you find your tribe, you just know it. 😅 The bottle tribe is a real thing. And i love it!
Very interesting. Nicely done!
Mom said they would make dolls out of them.
I would like to get a load of these bottles for a project of love 🥰
excellent video! your presentation and narration were delightful!
Thank you!
There was a popular kids show in Hawaii called Checkers and Pogo and every year they had a Mrs. Butterworth painting contest. And kids all over the state sent in hundreds of bottles over the years. And a lot of the bottles were incredibly detailed. But I noticed the children usually painted Mrs.Butterworth to look like a Aunt or Mother sometimes their Grandmother. So Mrs. Butterworth was a redhead , blonde , brunette. So she really wasn't black or white she was the Auntie the child dreamed of.
I like that! :)
@@antiquebottlestories Interesting Fact. The bottle was made from brown glass simply because brown glass was cheaper than clear glass. So the controversy of is Mrs. Butterworth black is pretty much nonsense. The only reason brown glass was used was to lower manufacturing cost.
thanks Brandy, I would find this bottle from time to time and level them were they lie but recently I've picked up one or to now, that people call them "antiques" lol.
Grew up with Aunt Jemima, I loved the iconic logo ~ to me it's always represented comfort and good food. Period. You did a wonderful job of explaining the history of both syrups and pancakes.
so its basically a bait station.
yep
Mrs Butterworth, easily one of the most iconic bottles of all time 😅
My mom went to an aunt jemima exhibition at a grocery store. This would have been late 40s early 50s. It seemed like she met a celebrity when we were kids 🤣
How awesome is that??!!
Very interesting!
I've yet to find a Mrs. Butterworth... maybe it wasn't sold in Canada
Hmm. i hadnt thought of that. maybe not!
Yep! Pancakes are racist.
I remember animated Mrs. Butterworth commercials where she had a British accent.
Lol...that voice DID sound British! Like as if she had been in North America for about 20 years.😂
I always loved Aunt Jemima! I never envisioned her as any "racist" figure, she just always embodied goodness, to me! I have a couple of Mrs. Buttersworth bottles that I love!❤
Yeah i dont believe that racist stuff either, i think it was just another way to cause division.
Haha, my name is Elizabeth! Like Mrs. Butterworth, I too am like an old lady...even as a young person, I was always a homebody who loved to cook and take care of others. I have no desire to be anyone who is outgoing and carefree. I accept my personality, and my name fits me I think lol Thanks for this interesting story about two pancake syrup companies. In the past few years, Aunt Jemima is no longer the face for the brand...I think it's Pearl Mills Company or something now. I don't buy much pancake mix or syrup, as I make my own homemade recipe, and l prefer maple syrup (I'm Canadian). Take care Edit, I just saw you mentioned the Pearl Milling Company. I got that detail correct, yay!
I have a friend named elizabeth too. I dont feel that that name is too old though. :)
