    Massachusetts Lot

    Needing to downsize in the name of space! Here is a fun lot of Massachusetts Soda & Dairy Bottles representing Lawrence, Lowell, Chelmsford, Somerville, Fitchburg. I'm not really sure what a reasonable offer is, but because the rules say 'All items being sold MUST have a price listed' I'll...

    I learned that that above amber bottles are not poison. Here is one with a label. A Supermalt! :P

    Spring Hike Finds

    Just a post of my little finds yesterday. It was warm enough for a short hike and brief visit to the dump site. Excited to find a marble and this little barrel jar.

    Reid Murdoch?

    Anyone have info on Reid-Murdoch glass jars and what they would have held? Maybe a condiment? I like the shape of these ones.

    I-CAR-DE?

    Anyone know what this jar would have been for? I have three of these I-CAR-DE that I can't turn up any info on.

    New to Selling

    Would love to know tips on where to sell and determining value. What are peoples favorite forums for selling? I'm not interested in ebay. Thinking of Craigslist. Here is my dairy lot! :) Only one I have really been able to reserach is the J.B Precott, which was the original dairy in...

    newbie help #2

    I see you mention your 1/2 pint that sold nicely! How/where do you like to sell them? I am new to this all. :P Could you give me tips on how to price/sell some of my dairy bottles? Embossed dairy from Massachusetts (J.B Prescott from Massachusetts, Giles, Horlick's, and C.B Meek). I don't...

    Yes, I was really pleased to find that one as well. What do you think it held? A fruit jar? Maybe honey?
