Status: offline 		I like all of them, I just cant seem to get rid of any of the ones dig!  I try to stick to Bitters and schnapps, anything square really and I also collect early glass house whiskey cylinders and some other early glass.  From there I branch out to any New London CT embossed bottles, (local), or any bottle blown at the New London Glass houses.  I also collect other CT glass house bottles, and any type of bottle with a tree embossed on it!  (and this is after I narrowed it down!)  O yeah, I almost forgot that I also like Cathedral peppers and pickles, any tiny embossed colored bottles, and then my girl friend likes chestnut flasks, case gins, and any bottle embossed with Phoenix, cause that is one of our dogs names, here dog actually...

I need to down size again too!  Or get a bigger house,  Hmmm, I wonder what is on the market....

Shoot, thanks Sunrunner, I almost forgot I keep any stoneware stuff I dig too....

and Travelers Companion flasks, along with tree flasks, and anchor flasks....

and crude Demijohns!!!

I would have to say local druggist/pharmacy bottles with much embossing, monogram/picture and/or from what were
once small towns.  San Francisco Jamaica Ginger bottles.  San Francisco pumpkinseed/coffin flasks.  Hard to narrow down favorites into just one catagory.
