    It's been done before but this my variation.

    Years ago my brother gave me some intact label extract and medicine bottles he found hidden away in an old house he worked on.

    I've gathered old bottles since I was a child, my brother and I would dig together here in Massachusetts. Flash forward 50+ years and I still take home the odd one in thrift stores and flea markets, never more than a few dollars, I'm a cheap Yankee. These bottles have been acquired over the last...
