post a pic of your bottle display

Hey Steve you're not far from me, I'm right on Main St. Glad you like the Wharton's, I didn't dig that one, sold for the guy who did. Didn't dig the Booz, either - came from a collection I bought from a 90 year old guy a few years back, either he or his mom(details were hazy, but hey, he was 90) found it in a drawer of some forgotten piece of furniture in the attic of their farmhouse. Weird where stuff ends up!

Classy! You'll probably get that shelf design stolen from you. I like it!

I've just spent the last half hour browsing through some of the best pictures I've seen of bottle collections thanks for taking the time to show them its always interesting to see how other collectors show their prized items off as Im from England Im at a loss as to your main collecting lines are But do love your sodas cures/bitters & those lovely flasks which I think are everones favs.I dont have my collection on display I only have a limited amount of space so can only display my stoneware gingers & stouts

from one corner

Looking along my other shelf

Here Ive had to stich two pictures together not on the same quality as you's guys but I like it cheers

I wonder how rare one of these type of bottle from Ohio is ? Saw one the other day at a toy show. Had some pretty cool pics and writing on it. It did have a base chip though. Awesome collection you have there by the way.

Hi Rory, there are several ginger beers from Ohio, some are very common, some very rare. Not sure which one you are talking about but in general they run $10-250 depending on rarity. Sounds like a Christian Moerlein from Cinci? with lots of writing. probably $60?? Local NY gingers are what I collect. Some are super common and tuff to sell for $15, some are one-known and the most I have heard for one is $1000. I don't follow ginger beers from other areas too much , so i can't say for sure what prices they bring.

Thanks for the info. I picked it up this morning for 30 bucks. I don't collect the type , but always thought they were Kool and this seemed like a nice one.

Amazing all the wonderful displays. Kind of made me miss digging. It's been quite a while since I have been here or posted. I've really enjoyed searching thru all the posts and seeing so many new names and a few old name. My life has gone to the dogs. For real. So bottle digging has been put on hold. It really made today my Birthday special to come back and so and feel the love you all have for your bottle and digging passion. I have that love for my dogs...all 41. Hugs, farmgal...
