I dug bottles at time when many of the more proficient, and snobbish, collectors would sneer at the thought of hauling any ABM bottles home; but I would not hesitate to keep any of the bottles pictured in this thread. I am also a fan of Art Deco.

Weird that his obituary makes no mention of Louis his brother in dallas, maybe the competition caused stress. I have dug several high grades and star bottles but have yet to see hutch type. The louis bottles are bim as are the star. Hope ya don't mind I'm going to print some of the ads and info for my kiddos and put them with the bottles. Maybe when I'm gone they won't be a quarter apiece at an estate sale. Very interesting story. I have been to the address in ft worth looking for a creek or dump near there.

The reason that I/we can't find a Star Bottling Co. Hutchinson bottle from Fort Worth or Dallas might be because it appears they started out in St. Louis, Missouri and not in Texas. Hence, a search for a Hutchinson bottle from St. Louis might produce something.

Hi Digger,
I attached a variety of the Aunt Ida bottled in Shreveport. LA. I recently gave a talk about this family (Ida, Joe, and his brother) and the story of how Aunt Ida who was originally a chemist, was so important to the company and how she ended up running a spin off herself. Great bottles and great story.

Hello Hamdan, glad u chimed in. Do you know why his brother in dallas is not mentioned?. Also I think L.Glazer is still in business in spirit sales. Is the slugplate Dallas bottle common in this collection. I have only dug half dozen or so and only in 1 dump less than 5 miles from address. It is a great family story with local connection to me.
