Publisher's Note
As more and more people feel the urge to possess objects of age or beauty, so the prices of antiques soar beyond the pockets of many people. Bottles, however, have remained comparatively inexpensive. In Victorian times, our forebears packed everything from tea to hair restorer in glass bottles, and they discarded them with their household refuse. In dumps all over Britain, these bottles are waiting to be dug up, each non-machine-made bottle a collector's item. This book describes the development of bottles of all sorts and illustrates over two hundred examples.

Bottles and bottle Collecting

Created: 07/05/10
A very informative book for the avid collector or the just plain curious. Hedges shows us a very well rounded collection, with a small explanation of excavations in Warwickshire to retrieve some of these treasures.

All in all, a fun read sure to peak the interest of someone contemplating becoming a collector.

I found this to be an above average effort as far as bottle books go. Covering primarily European stuff, it's still a great reference work, and a good addition to any collection of bottle books. Well thought out, there's a lot of info in a little space. Rob
