Figure 25  Bottle, William Rogers, Yorktown, Virginia, 1720–1745. Salt-glazed stoneware. H. 10 3/4". (Courtesy, National Park Service, Colonial National Historical Park, Yorktown Collection.) COLO Y71262. In addition to large bottles, a number of fragments from small bottles and flasks (or pocket bottles) were found of the type mentioned in the 1739 inventory. Bottles displayed variation in cordon patterns near the rim, as well as different handle types. A “WR” crown stamp mark is displayed on the shoulder of this example. Capacity seems to vary from one to three gallons, possibly larger.
