South River finds - 2/7/2012 10:00:05 PM    Wheelah23 Posts: 4300 Joined: 8/9/2010 From: Glen Ridge, New Jersey Status: offline I'm amazed I added so many great bottles at this show, thanks to a lot of kind members of the New Jersey bottle forum... Thanks guys! Wish you'd post on ABN more. Anyway, the other small miracle was that I was able to sell enough to cover all these purchases! Subtracting all this, I still made $17 on the day! Without further ado... The first local find, from my friend Arne... I have one already, but at $1, this mint one was a no brainer.

RE: South River finds - 2/7/2012 10:05:05 PM    Wheelah23 Posts: 4300 Joined: 8/9/2010 From: Glen Ridge, New Jersey Status: offline Found out at the show that this one's local... George R. Davis from Brick Church, NJ! Brick Church was a church in East Orange, and the area around it might've been known by that name. The train station in the area is still called Brick Church.

This one has the tin top bail on the neck though.

RE: South River finds - 2/7/2012 10:10:17 PM    Wheelah23 Posts: 4300 Joined: 8/9/2010 From: Glen Ridge, New Jersey Status: offline I wasn't an avid milk collector... That is, until I got this one for $10! A local digging friend brought me a bag of bottles to show off, and my heart stopped when I saw this... I obviously bought it outright. It's in absolutely pristine condition. I've never seen an ABM milk like this which has so many seed bubbles... Anybody have any similar ones? This is from "B. MEBIUS/ 46 SALTER PL./ BLOOMFIELD, N.J."

Louis Ohlmann from East Orange. I've got a blob, but this amber tooled crown is a first for me. Love stuff with addresses embossed.

RE: South River finds - 2/7/2012 10:20:18 PM    Wheelah23 Posts: 4300 Joined: 8/9/2010 From: Glen Ridge, New Jersey Status: offline A very unusual closure on a very clean Orange Brewery bottle... Usually these come with the Phoenix closure or a crown top. Cracked, unfortunately... Why is it always the good ones? I think it's an Aluminum Seal.

RE: South River finds - 2/7/2012 10:22:17 PM    Wheelah23 Posts: 4300 Joined: 8/9/2010 From: Glen Ridge, New Jersey Status: offline Speaking of weird closures, here's the weirdest of the weird... It's a "Thomas Patent" bottle, which was sealed with a ceramic marble held in by a rubber loop in the groove in the mouth. Very unusual shape. It's a Thomas Whitford from Orange NJ. I got it from JF. It's a great one!
