    Kolowine

    I was going through some of my storage bottles the other day, which includes some that are broken, chipped, faded, etc. and found this Kolowine bottle. I don't remember where I acquired it or when. It was produced for a very short time by Cheerwine. I collect Cheerwine, and its forerunner...

    An idea for displaying special / interesting bottle and glass shards

    This might be an idea for someone. Many years ago, a friend and schoolmate of mine who made pottery (very big here in Randolph County, NC), made a pie plate and gave it to me as a gift.

    Unknown coin found metal detecting

    There is a metal detecting series called "The Hoover Boys" on Youtube. They know all those very old type coins. Maybe you could send them a pic.

    Hello from North Carolina

    The two hutch bottles were used between 1905-07. The straight-side Coke was used at Star between 1912-16. The hobbleskirt bottle is actually a 1915, in a pretty ice blue, and was used from about 1916 to about 1922. The CC Soda was a Coca-Cola flavors bottle, and was used in the 1916-22...

    Hello from North Carolina

    Hi Guys. I have been collecting local bottles for a long time, from my hometown of Star, North Carolina. They have been difficult to find, but I have a pretty good collection. I have attached a photo of my best bottles. I am looking for two others that have eluded me so far, and I have also...
