i also just read this A recent accident at a group shop in New Hampshire brought to our attention a potential danger that could be lurking in your home, if you collect them?or in your shop, if you sell them. We?re talking about highly collectible glass fire extinguishers (commonly called grenades), those antique glass balls (often teardrop or bottle shaped), sometimes shaped like a glass rolling pin, that were used years ago to extinguish fires. As it turns out, many of them are filled with harmless salt water?but many others, typically the ?later? mass produced variety are filled with Carbon Tetrachloride, a dangerous chemical that can potentially cause lung damage with just one exposure?liver and kidney damage?and even death.
   In January, 2001, when one of these glass ?grenades? broke at a NH group shop, the result was a shop evacuation and five hours of dealing with the NH HazMat team. To our knowledge, this is the second time in just two years that this has happened in a local group shop.

Hi Outback, Ain't it sweet when ya find one of those old bottle dumps back in the woods like you and Wezzie have? Grin I've also been lucky enough to come across a few in my time too, while hunting Grouse. Just standing there, bottles poking out of the ground all around you, makes you wonder how many years it's been since the last person was there, right where you're standing. Sometimes it even gives me the bumps! Embarrassed I've found that lots of times they are all from one family's consumption over many years. Years ago, everyone that lived on a country road, had a dump somewhere behind the house. Everyone. Now, that adds up to a lot of old glass just waiting to be discovered by kool history seekers like ourselves.  :Smiley

The little Iodine bottle you have there is one of my favorites. I have a picture of one of them, for sale on one of my websites and they can go for $10 easy...

Later,

lb
