His job helped in that it allowed him to travel a lot. He even dropped by my place once. _____________________________ * Member: Bristol Historical Assoc...and, Friends of Steeles Creek Nature Center & Park President: Bristol Tenn-Va Bottle Club Author of: Spirits & Medicinal Bottles of Bristol,TN-VA.

RE: Beer - 8/21/2005 6:59:32 AM    IRISH   Posts: 1238 Joined: 11/23/2002 From: cockatoo Australia Status: offline Some stunning beer bottles in this thread , the colours of some in your photo's are amazing Whiskyman. Beers are a very popular (and expensive) field here in Oz. The bottles like the one in the photo below are a lot less widely collected though, it's a once plain bottle with the company name sandblasted onto the bottle, nice cheap way for a brewery to get there own bottles. They may not be highly regarded but I think they are great , also some are the only bottles used by small brewerys who never went to the expense of getting embossed ones made.

RE: Beer - 8/22/2005 12:00:30 AM    Insulators Rule!   Posts: 289 Joined: 8/30/2004 From: Strathroy, Ontario, Canada Status: offline Man, this post has some nice beers! I would like to dig some Ontario beers, but I can never find a dump older then like 1940. I have looked high and low. I know the beers from my hometown sell high. They start at about $170 and make their way up to about $400. Those are all from the same company as the company was in business for a long time, and was huge. It was the biggest ( in Ontario) until Labatts and Carling merged in the 1890s or so, if those 2 names mean anything to you! < Message edited by Insulators Rule! -- 8/22/2005 12:01:45 AM > (in reply to alan23t5) Post #: 39
