Heads up. I got a good story to tell you about Toronto and I've got good pictures of some fine looking antique glass bottles that were unearthed by professional excavators digging a deep hole into what was once the 1840's era lake shore opposite a commercial pier known as Ree's Wharf Aug 13 2011,
Antique Glass Bottles Found Under Southcore Financial Centre & Delta Hotel Toronto, The Story of Rees' Wharf
My focus is not on Dr Rees but rather on the antique glass bottles that were liberated from the ground by the team,
The above tan coloured stoneware ginger beer bottle has already been sold to a famous Toronto bed and breakfast for an unspecified amount, but note that its not rare or in perfect condition. The seller's hand is eclipsing a large crack down the side of this object.
But look here THIS BOTTLE is really rare! The one big discovery is this very special early Ontario beer bottle,
this piece is key to the history of Hornby Ontario and there's a good story here about two Irish immigrants who came to Upper Canada and would have walked down Rees Pier - its a puzzle how a Hornby beer bottle ended up down here at the base of Toronto, or perhaps testament to the quality and distribution of Brayn Bros Brewery in the early 1870s.
