Then there is my personal favorite southern themed themed bottle. With my last name on the label, who can resist?

Seen this one yesterday in a local antique shop. Started to get it but they wouldn't come down to a reasonable price. How many places was this bottled at morb?

Petersburg, Va.. Should sell in the $35-$50 range. Have seen it go higher.

Here are some more bottles with Southern icons.

You'll note that this is a group photo of individual bottle photos from my display.
I use 9-pocket baseball card sheets to display photos of my collection contents. My 'show off' book, if you will. Each photos is nearly 2.5" x 3.5"...so I can really see the labels. I think it shows off the designs really well, versus showing a photo album with tiny shelves of bottles...and even tinier labels. Welcome to my pov.

Anyway. I had never used them for a 'group' shot before. And it sure is much more time saving that dragging a dozen off the shelf to photograph. I hope you can make something out of them. Enjoy!

Saw a couple of Cumberland Valleys today in Morristown's bottle show, I need that old smokey, now that's a tough one to find.

Sounds like I should go back and get it. They wanted $25 for it. I was thinking it was fairly common.

morb,
Please note the direction the train is running on the Cumberland and the sholder/neck area, as it is not a very commonly found version of this brand. Number #260 in the ACL book is a smooth bottle where this one is squat.

I really like that Lee Beverages.How much do they usually sell for?

They are a tougher one to find, when you find it, but I wouldn't pay for than forty for one in great shape.
Thanks,That one will go on my bottle bucket list.
