I love ships in bottles. You have got to give serious credit to the very first person who thought this concept up!

These pictures were taken at the Marine Museum in Fall River, Massachusetts.

Most of these ships in bottles were kept under glass casing so my pictures aren't the greatest! You can't get a really good look at the detail work and craftsmanship of the ships. But, You still can get a look at them. And.... one more remarkable thing about these ships is the wide variety of bottles! I love it! There is even a ship in a light bulb.
