Default Some of my bottles.

Ok so I used to hunt bottles in my teens, ( I am 50 now). I really did not "dig" bottles up. I went under old stores and homes to find mine.

This is a small sample of my old collection. My parents seeing no value in "old bottles" threw all the rest away, !!

I still have all of the ones I am goona show you, Beale.

Nice bottles Beale,My parents felt the same way about my rock collection ! But luckily my parents had an antique store called the "Bottle barn" when I was a kid so the bottles were safe !
