Thank you for this post. Today I dug a Cee’s Cola piece with a local bottling company slug plate above it. I’ll try to attach a picture. This is just a piece…but I’m going back tomorrow to hopefully dig about two hours. Tons of amber coke pieces, bottling works hutch pieces, Memphis hutch...
I think you can find modern Codd bottles at any gaming store or Japanese restaurant. My niece loves them. These have a plastic label on them and come in different flavors. BUT the bottom is scored around the heel (I assume to keep them from falling off the assembly line).
Your bottle is very...
Looking for Tennessee Hutchinson bottles to buy for my collection. I will consider any hutch from Tennessee but I mainly collect West Tennessee Hutchinson style bottles. Memphis, Jackson, Dyersburg, Brownsville, Ripley, Humboldt and Trenton, are missing from my collection. But any Hutch from...
Ok. It’s on eBay, so if it doesn’t sale i’m not going to relist it. But if someone gives me my starting bid it’s theirs. I’ll let you know if it doesn’t sale.

Gas works too, we used gas to get roofing tar off our hands. Cuts through it like butter. Diesel would be slot safer though, not nearly as combustible.
Insulators have a ton of error variations. Not quite as many as Ball jars (makes me think they did it on purpose), but look closely you may have a Brookfield error! Not worth a lot but something cool anyway.
I like them, that dairy bottle would have came home with me for sure. As for the rest...having been collecting "old" bottles from the time I was a kid, I get the keep everything mentality. BUT, at some point you have to thin out your collection and really specialize in a type of region of...
That's a cool idea! I see you already have Madison County Tennessee highlighted. I have a Chero Slug plate I pulled out of a creek from Jackson. They also bottled Chero in Gibson County Tennessee in Trenton. I have never seen a Chero from Brownsville (Haywood County) Tennessee, but I have found...
