Default Welcome to the forum!!

Hiya Ken and a big welcome to the forum!! You have some great finds there.....do you have a photo of your collection? I just love seeing the things people from other countries collect. Have never seen black glass before, we have a lot of blue...and green bottles here, from the old days. I have found a few in old coal mining ghost towns. I travel to southern Oklahoma alot, and there are several old coal mines there.....most are old strip mines that are now filled with water. I sure look forward to seeing more of your finds.....have fun and happy hunting!!
