Since you have so many bottles, please keep me in mind on any from Rhode Island. Beer/water/soda, meds, inks, poisons, etc, if it says Rhode Island, or any town/city in RI, I'm interested! Thanks!

I've only been collecting bottles for a little over a year, so I'm still a newbie and haven't seen most of them yet. It's iRI-153 in the Little Rhody Bottle book. Is it up for sale or trade?? _____________________________ Always looking for bottles from Rhode Island and Danielson and Killingly, CT. (in reply to kastoo) Post #: 12

He said he was going to add it to the site but I think he fell ill. He said it's a rare RI bott. none known (that was 4 or 5 years ago though) and made me two offers. Think about an offer. Rick.
