Muskoka lakes bottle dive , found the soda bottle honey hole

[CanadianBottles]

That Associated Bottlers is a pretty old one I think, I have a feeling it might be from the 20's. Could be mixing it up with the Canadian Bottlers bottle from Montreal though, I think that one's similar. Pretty funny that as much as people complain about the state of people's grammar today they were still confusing insure and ensure back then. Also, on our old subject of Canadian Coke bottles, I found a very old broken hobbleskirt in a dump i just found which undeniably dates to the early 20's at the latest (a local business is involved which proves the date, but don't want to say much more than that online) so straight sides were definitely phased out pretty early on. That one didn't have a date on the bottom by the way, still not sure what year they started that.

finally found a complete not broken pure spring bottle from Ottawa , not much of the label left though . also the odd browns beverage bottle , possibly a rare variant of the common 7 oz bottle , I have not before found a not broken bottle like this that had " Browns Beverages LTD " embossed on side an bottom . the older ones use JD brown and newer ones just Browns Bev . so it seems to be an odd bottle they didn't use for long here

What will you do with all these?

What will you do with all these?

that is a good question , I haven't kept everything I found keep that in mind , a lot of the broken or damaged ones I already disposed of in glass recycling each week . so I only kept the better stuff or interesting broken ones .trying to find some local antique stores that might want some of the extras , sold one assortment of 10 bottles to one store and traded a couple others to another . got rejected at another store so gradually finding a home for some of them .

Yard/block sale, perhaps?
