Why I love yardsales in Southeastern PA! - 9/19/2011 1:21:38 AM    cobaltbot Posts: 3878 Joined: 4/7/2006 From: Delta, PA Status: offline Summer yard sale season is quickly slipping away like the red leaves of the black gum trees.  It went out with a bang for me Saturday morning as among many other things I got all the bottles you see here plus four three in one oil bottles that I used for church for a grand total of $37.  It's way past bed time and its been a hell of a week and weekend so I'm just going to tease here, add some pics of some of the other stuff, and explain what I got tomorrow.  Attachment (1) _____________________________ My tombstone will read: He went out for a walk and never came back....

RE: Why I love yardsales in Southeastern PA! - 9/19/2011 12:07:33 PM    RED Matthews Posts: 2396 Joined: 8/2/2008 Status: offline Well it looks like you had good bottle collecting.  I am most interested in the Eagle bottles, because I have two of them. (one is U.S and the other is Tiawan.  The two side beside are the same, except when they use one for the model and then duplicate it - shrinkage of the size amount to almost a quarter of an inch - vertically.   The bottoms of the others would be interesting to evaluate the embossing.  The Napolian bottle could be a Centennial bottle made by Chattanooga Glass. Co.   An interesting figural group.  RED Matthews _____________________________ http://www.bottlemysteries.com/welcome/ (in reply to cobaltbot) Post #: 5

Just for the record Steve (sewell bottle man) I get even less replies to my posts than you do. Granted, most of them are not worthy of replies, I don't mind, I'm used to it. Its all good/ happy bottles!  Attachment (1) _____________________________ My tombstone will read: He went out for a walk and never came back.... (in reply to RED Matthews) Post #: 6
