I was looking at the ad on the Bixby card and it struck me as a bit odd. It says thier new quarts and pints hold 20% more than the old bottles??? wtf?? Does that mean as a customer they have been ripping me off? When is a quart a quart and a pint a pint? I guess that may explain the prevailence of "GUARANTEED FULL QUART" type bottles at the end of the 19th century.
