Todays decent bottles, and the strangest extra find ever!! - 3/5/2006 9:15:04 PM    Yooper14 Posts: 313 Joined: 4/25/2005 From: Ohio Status: offline Here's a picture of the bottles I like from today. A amber Suntex (first one, so gotta keep it), a little "selick perfumer New York, a couple plain ones on the left I just like (nice amber color and aqua color - the aqua one at far left has a funny cork), a really rough (lots of bubbles) Ball Mason, a nice little straight, narrow food jar, and a little syrup-type bottle labeled LACO. And down in the corner....an eyeball!! That's right..more on that below.

It's not a real-fake one, as the back has a broken glass appendage. Any ideas where this may have come from????

From the size of the eye, I would say it was for a pretty big head. Here is a picture I found on ebay so you could see what it looked like inside the head. ~~Tom Attachment (1) (in reply to Yooper14) Post #: 6

Sometimes things do stare back at you... When I was a cop, one time I responded to a "Burglary in Progress" at a residence on a back road. Back-up officers were in place and I was going room to room with another officer to "clear" the house. I went into one upstairs bedroom and popped open a closet and there was a full sized "blow-up" doll standing in the closet with a "Nightie" on!!!! Damned near plugged it full of holes!!!!!!!!! and that's the truth!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Wayne < Message edited by southern Maine diver -- 3/5/2006 11:01:37 PM > (in reply to Yooper14) Post #: 9

I just started collecting them last year and have a nice little set going already. Here is a picture of it… Attachment (1) < Message edited by Bottleman -- 3/7/2006 8:38:34 PM > (in reply to Yooper14) Post #: 11
