Hunting Antique Bottles in the Marine
Environment is the complete field guide for
finding and identifying antique bottles. Capt.
Berg has been searching for antique bottles in
local lakes, rivers and on shipwrecks for over
thirty years. Learn not only how to find
submerged antique bottles but also how to clean
them and how to determine how old they are. This
text is packed with historical information that
shows how bottles were produced and how each
manufacturing process left distinct marks which
can be used to accurately estimate any bottles
age. Capt. Dan has heavily illustrated this text
with over 200 color images depicting the types
of bottles that can be recovered by searching
local waters.
He
also uses over 10 unique 3D diagrams designed to
give a better understanding as to the time line
of glass blowing and bottle manufacturing. These
3D mold images are combined with drawings of the
bottles they produced and highlight the distinct
mold seam marks each created. This informative
text tells all the tricks of the trade that
until now have only been learned through years
of experience. Bottle collectors, scuba divers
and anyone interested in exploring the marine
environment for these historic treasurers will
reference this text often as they search for and
collect antique bottles.
