Somers CT Bottle Club 40th Show Feb. 28 - 2/21/2010 7:47:36 AM    Bixby Bill Posts: 342 Joined: 4/24/2009 From: Ellington, CT Status: offline Our 40th antique bottle show is coming up very soon on Feb. 28. We always have a great selection of early New England and other exceptional bottles and glass, milk bottles, and stoneware. This year our display area will have a fine display of foreign insulators and a large display of Bixby bottles and advertising, probably the largest Bixby display ever done! We also have great food along with the great bottles and people! Come down and check us out, you`ll be glad you did!

Sometimes a dealer does decide to stop coming due to the distance or their age, and we have a waiting list every year that we go by to fill it, but that doesn`t happen very often. We have limited space at the school where we hold it, and we can`t accomodate everybody. It is still a good show to go to even if you aren`t a dealer. I hope this clears things up for you.    Bill _____________________________ Always looking for anything Bixby: bottles, tins, boxes, trade cards, advertising, etc. Been collecting for 33 years and still don`t have enough of them!
