Bottler's Bureau Books

[celerycola]

Anyone see these books on ebay? They look like a great resource. I am bidding on the volumes 1924 through 1942 because that covers my main interest time frame. Plus buying the whole set would run close to a thousand bucks at minimum bid!

I plan to scan them into .pdf files and will be happy to share them by email. Maybe someone wants to bid on the 1943 plus years and do the same?

I intend to do the same with my 1923 and 1925 Bottler's Blue Books in the near future.

I wish you luck! If you're willing to share them then you'll be a huge asset to the soda bottle community.

I would be very interested in pdfs of those if you would be so kind as to send me copies.

Sure is a bunch of them , be kind of a shame to break them up . I can understand it happening though .

Hope you win them Dennis. And, sign me up to get a PDF copy of the books! That is great you are willing to do that.

Thanks for sharing.

Also available here on CD, but they "aren't cheap."

It's too bad we couldn't figure out some way for individual members to try and win certain books without having to bid against one another, and then share later on, but I suppose it's too late for that now.

PS ~

There are very few of the earlier books (pre 1960) that don't already have at least one bid on them. And because I don't think it's right to bid against Dennis or any other member, I placed a bid on the 1952 book because ...

1. It had not been bid on yet.
2. 1952 is the year I was born.

I also asked the seller the following question(s) ...

Dear bluevelvet_estate_sales_on_facebook

Do the books contain pictures? If so, pictures of what?

Bottling Plants?
Bottles?
People?
Etc?

If I'm not mistaken..............that's is called 'bid rigging'. A slightly illeagle and highly unethical way to screw someone.


Not that I'm above breaking the law..................just don't like screwing someone.


I guess I live by other standards. []
