    info on a blob please

    Anyone out there able to give me some information on an aqua blob soda (beer?) from Louisianna? Just says J.B. JUNQUA NEW ORLEANS. Was mainly wondering how common or uncommon it may be. I had heard that the New Orleans bottle market was pretty flooded with botttles after Katrina. Basically...

    Looking for Anything from Paris, Tennessee

    Hey, No, I haven't really been looking. I will shoot you a private and let you know the last place I saw any of those. I also saw an amber electro-cola a while back. Thought that was pretty cool. Good luck, hope you find some good ones. Sending you a PM. Dan

    Send me your wish-list

    I am noticing in my bottle dealing travels that there are any number of sodas sitting collecting dust in shops simply because they are sitting in the wrong part of the country. A nice hutch from illinios may sit on a shelf forever here in West Tennessee, where it would move in a matter of...

    Looking for a bottle?

    I have noticed in my bottle dealing that I have access to bottles in my part of the country, that here are in little demand, but elsewhere may be in great demand. I run up on nice sodas, including Hutches that are priced reasonably, from all over the U.S. If there is one particular state or...

    Bison Horn and Memphis Hutch

    Here is a picture of the bison antiquus with a ruler. Just to give you an idea of the size and the difference between this and the modern bison or buffalo. A modern bison's complete skull with both horns intact would only be a little over half as wide as this half skull and single horn. We...

    Bison Horn and Memphis Hutch

    this is the mastodon tooth. the enamel is in very good condition and seems like the colors are changing in it every year since he found it. Most of the root is missing, but you can still see some along the gum line. Yep, that is one tooth, about 8 inches long I think.

    Bison Horn and Memphis Hutch

    Jr. and I got to go on one of our long awaited low-water excursions. We go to look for fossils mainly, sometimes find indian artifacts, and seldom will find an embossed hobbleskirt or some older shards of bottles. Jr. found a nice bison antiquus partial skull with one horn. Been extinct...

    Need info on Illinois slugplate from New Burnside

    Hello All, I ran up on a nice slugplate soda from New Burnside Ill. today. According to wilkipedia it is a village of about 242 people. (2000 census). I think that would classify this bottle as a hard to find small town slug. Was wondering if anyone up there in Illinois collects...
