Hi everyone! I hit a local flea market this morning, and there were lots of nice bottles, but most seemed rather pricey. I like to buy cheap, so here's what I picked up:

3 semi-local half pint milks from Cape Cod Creamery, Hyannis, Mass, Gleason Farms, Hyannis, Mass, and Turner Centre Systems, from Maine.

Got a couple of nice food jars, too. Don't know much about these, but they were priced right:

-A nice, oval quart, embossed "King", and "Smalley, Kivlan & Onthank, Boston, Mass" on the base.

-a nice aqua J H Bunnell, N.Y. jar, with a ground glass lip

Anyone know anything about the Bunnell??

Last one:  Gouraud's Oriental Cream, New York. I can't tell if this one is truely a smokey gray color, or if it's just a little SCA coloring, but I liked it, and for the price, why not? Comments and info welcome, and thanks for looking!!

No, Lobey, Seekonk Speedway flea market. The Rocky Hill flea market down here where I live closed down at the end of last year, so now I'll split time between Seekonk and Raynham. I'm always on the lookout for cheapie bottles I can steal, some I keep, some I put up on eBay. Thanks!

Follow up on the J H Bunnell: I've been researching this one, and it appears that J H Bunnell & Co of New York was a major manufacturer of telegraph products. I believe this was a telegraph battery jar!!

Anyone else have any ideas on this one?? I'm going to post this under jars too. Thanks!!

Neat jar. It has a food bottle shape, but that doesn't mean it wasn't a battery.
The Oriental Cream looks like it's been "nuked" to be that color. I've seen them in clear.
