Status: offline 		Very nice collection of home town bottles. It looks like you
have Freehold pretty much covered. No doubt it has taken
you a long time to amass such an extensive collection.
Great job and display. Greg

the town of friesburg was settled by my family, and i have been looking for glass from that town for years. my last name "freas" comes from the people that settled this town. most would say "friesburg" but it should be pronounced like "freeze" burg. it has been changed over the years but "freas" has become the norm ,and i have done a ton of work to find this out ,but it was all worth it.thanks guys.~matt

The aqua meds are hard to come by so those are always nice to get.

Thanks for the panoramic views of your collection. That Meyers Jug and the Apple Jack Dispenser are real stand out pieces!



Could'ya make closer introductions? Would love to hear some back stories on personal favorites, too. Thanks.

Status: offline 		Some baltimore loop gravitaing stopper type bottles all but the one amber second from the left are loop style bottles.. all the ambers are scarce.. nothing is ever rare or one of a kind to me.. if there is one there is another someplace.. this applies to most things other than patent models and art .mostly..

I fully believe they never made just one of any bottle..

And as you can see I am not a believer in cleaning or tumbling.. If it doesn't come off with soap water, somekinda cleaner or steelwool.. so be it!! Tumbling is for that fancy glass like flasks etc.. not working mans glass like soda beers meds etc..


Hey sufaceone anything from your local collection?
