Free bottlez

[Wheelah23]

Ended up at a contractor's place today, and it turns out they found some bottles on a job site recently... They handed me a bucket of dirty bottles and said "Take 'em!". So I did. They have some VERY stubborn dirt on them, but I think an acid bath will clean them right up. These are the keepers. Of course I got a few junkers (slicks, E. R. Durkee, Ball jar), but for free, this is a great haul!

Another George Greason quart blob from Montclair... That's the 11th distinct Greason variant I own, and I know of AT LEAST three other blob varieties which I don't own... I think this guy was OCD about never using the same mold twice!

A pint sized Fairfield Dairy Co. (F. D. Co.) from Montclair. I have a half pint and a couple quarts, so this pint fits nicely.

An Orange Brewery tooled crown I didn't have.

A Whippany River Farm quart milk from Whippany NJ. Maybe a rare one, I'll have to find out on the NJ forum.

A Curtice Brothers ketchup from Rochester.

An almost unrecognizable "Smalley Self Sealer".

I lied, it's completely unrecognizable. Here's the base. I figure a weakly embossed, clear jar is not worth much even mint?

A cool porcelain and metal electrical thing.

1920's maybe? Here's the bottom part.

The coolest part is when you turn the knob enough, it switches off and on again!
