Had a nice day digging today. Found several bottle that I will be asking for help identifying after i exhaust my google button. My camera and computer are NOT speaking at this point, and I will post pics as soon as they play nice with each other again. In the mean time, can anyone give me some info on a nicely embossed 4/5 quart clear "Old 1889 Brand" bottle? from what Ive seen its an old whiskey bottle, but I cant find a pic of the one i have or its value as an old bottle. The lables are for sale on ebay but no bottles. any thoughts?

Have you tried inserting the camera's memory card into your computer, rather than connecting the camera?

That looks like a winner. Any value in the bottle? I see the lables on ebay, but not the bottles. I find all kinds of wine and whiskey bottles where I've been digging. Thanks for the info.

Hey AMCS,

Afraid not, its circa 1957-1964 OI machine made clear screw top whiskey in dug condition. Now, leave it in your garage for another fifty years, and then you may be talking...
