Does this site cover embossed, pontiled sodas and mineral waters? That what I mainly collect along with Hawaiian bottles. Is there anyone else who collects these kind of bottles on this forum?

Hey Pono, I don't personally collect them but we have alot of folks that dig them and collect them. I wish we could dig them around here. This place is plenty old enough but it was a military area and they didn't leave alot of great pontiled sodas. They did leave alot of unidentifiable metal crap and alot of unembossed beers, whiskeys, and wines.

How is your back doing. Went to the VA man today and he give me a good twist so i am down for the count for a day or two. *$%@^$#  back.

Howsit Warren, I was wondering if anyone else on this site who collects and wants to talk about pontiled sodas and mineral waters. Most of the posts I read are for newer sodas. I see that poisons are collected heavily by a lot of members.
Thanks for your post.
Your down in the south? I used to know a guy in Tampa area that dug a lot of southern bottles. However, he got religion (so to speak) and doesn't dig anymore. While he did dig, I bought and traded with him for some really nice southern stuff.
Sorry to hear about your back and the VA. I stay away from the VA as much as I can. They're the ones who messed up my back surgery to begin with. My back is doing as good as it can. Its a lousy stiuation where it will continue to get worse and there is nothing that can be done about it. Email me if you want yap about your tour of duty at bowlofcereal223@yahoo.com.
So, all you members who collect the above mentioned types of bottles, lets yap about them.

Hey Stinger,

I'm always up for a disscussion about pontiled sodas considering their my main collecting interest. Also did you see the Blue Pontiled Roussell I'm selling on ebay.

Hey Pono,

I got the " it will only get worse' desease too. It is pretty common around the Va but at least we know what happened to what was left after the top 10% of the class left.

I'll drop you a line. The wife aint been to the I lands yet. I may have to bring her if I can get her back on a plane.

Hey Chris,
I try and stay away from ebay, but my wife buys and sells (a little).
We looked up your listings under sodas, that was a good one, so my wife bid on it. She didn't bid enough though. A cobalt Roussel is a hard one to come by.
I think it is worth more than the final amount, but from what I see happening lately, your bottle was higher than most sodas on ebay.
Post some of your pontiled sodas so we can all be jealous (we looked at your website again, nice bottles).
Please impart some of your knowledge of pontiled sodas to the rest of us.

Hey Bottleman,
Thanks for the compliment on my our collection. Believe or not, we have probably three times that amount of pontiled sodas & mineral waters.
Hey, can you post some of your favorites out of your collection?
Are you looking for any bottle/s in particular or anything to ask or share about our favorite bottles?
Do you do your own tumbling?

Howsit Warren,
No, she isn't a redhead, but don't ever cross her or piss her off. Normally, she is about as sweet and nice as anyone could be. Just don't do anything dumb.
Those gators are pretty nasty when your walking closely to the edge of some water down in the south. I was fishing near Debary, Fl and had a medium size one make a lunge at me. This was about 45 years ago.

Stinger, I mainly collect pontiled sodas from Philadelphia because there are so many of them and they are affordable. Yes, I have my own tumbler and I tumble all of my sodas. If you ever get any doubles from Philada, I would be interesting in buying or trading for them. Check out page 6 of this post for the updated picture of some of my sodas.

~~Tom

Tom, you some nice looking sodas.The cobalt paneled one on your topshelf, what kind is it? Is that a Golden Bitters on the far right? How about that fruit jar? I used to have some inks as well.
I collect a lot of Philly sodas, your right about there being a lot to collect, but at the same time they also have some of the best ones. We' ll have to compare notes on what we have as far as duplicates, plus I have some that maybe you want more than I do. Do you know about the website that lists almost all the philly sodas, mineral waters and short lagers? If not, let me know because its an excellent reference for Philly sodas..
Please, send an updated picture of your sodas. What type of tumbling set up do you have?
I'll post some of my Philly sodas so you can see them.

Road Dog, after looking at that Twedles with the one "D", I had to make sure I still had mine. No kidding, I have a taper top with the exact same embossing  Mine is is an aqua.
The color on your otherTweddles is show stopper, just beautiful. Tweddles made some killer colors on some of their bottles. Some the best colors are Tweddles.
Do you anymore to showcase?
I'll post a small group of Tweddles starting out with an open pontiled one.
Do you tumble your bottles?
Thanks for sharing your bottles,
Stinger

Hey everyone, how about some sodas, mineral waters from Pittsburgh, N.Y. Baltimore, etc. Some Southern ones would be great as well. Anybody out West have any those curved "R" s to show?  Some local Hawaiian bottles would be nice, a lot of collectors haven't seen too many of our hutches, short necks, mugbases, paneled, etc.
Just show us what you have.
