 I already removed the baby picture and fit in the said two bottles = that was the last straw...

Meech, regarding the upcoming Richmond bottle show, I was thinking vendors would be selling all good stuff, and that I may be a bit embarrassed peddling 1858 masons and EZ Seals.  Would there be a folks looking for such common stuff at a bottle show?  I need to get you to look thru the lot before I do any sale as I may have some "sleepers" mixed in that I am unaware of (I am especially weak on milk bottle value).

My wife doesn't really hate 'em all, she just ain't a clutter person.

Hey E -
When I'm digging a lot, I set up w/ sections at my tables w/ $1 - $3 - $5 - $10 (designated areas). It makes shopping a breeze for those that only want to spend a certain amount. I get a lot of comments at my sales tables like... 'You have a little of everything'. I do try to offer something for everybody. The 1-3-5-10 sections are priced that way so they will move (sell). A good many will be underpriced, but I look at it as 'I'll dig more'.

I'll try to get out your way soon and before the show, if you'd like. In the meantime, try to set aside glass you are willing to part with ...which will be the hard part, huh.

I think I can find a place here for those slug plate flasks.

Meech, good ideas, I am already setting stuff aside.  I think I could set up decent $1-3-5-10 spread, I have several crocks that I am also willing to part with at the upper end of that scale.  Likely the best stuff I am willing to part with are the milk bottles:  that persistant local  milk bottle-collecting lady we were talking about came by a few years ago and was very interested in my milk bottles, I have several ACL/embossed Va/NC/SC 1/2 pints in mint condition that mean nothing to me.  She called me for two years trying to buy them from me - maybe if she wasn't so pushy I would have made a deal with her.  Only problem is that my wife actually likes these bottles so discourages selling them off - go figure.

ncbred, I do have alot of duplicate slugplate flasks - perhaps we could make a trade?  I am into blobs beers and sodas from either Dixie or Yankeeland if'n you want to talk trade sometime.

Hmmmm... I thought the idea was to REDUCE the number of bottles! And here you are talking trade!
