    Looking for Union County PA milk bottles

    Thanks guys for the replies. Sorry that I didn't get around to thanking you sooner. I have been considering joining the NAMBC. Also, I did see the auction listing. However, Uniontown is not in Union County. Luckily, we had two nice local sales in January and again in March. Between those...

    Lloyd's PA Dairy Handbook

    Brian,Glad to hear the book is back. Somewhere through the grapevine someone gave me your father's phone number. I called him a year or two ago. He was kind enough to print off and send me a few pages of the book for a few bucks. Those pages were very helpful, but I always kept my eyes...

    ARGGGGHHH

    I agree. People make money every day. They aren't making any more of those... but that is easy for me to say. Milk bottles from my area are much more expensive. Anything from my area under $100 is probably a good deal. Some go for $700 plus!

    There are also similar articles out there for the Atlantic Bottle Co. and for Owens-Illinois Glass Co. I believe Bill Lockhart is the primary author for all of them.

    anyone ever find a privy right next to a house?

    I live in an apartment that is part of a house built in 1840. I borrowed a probe that is 4 or 5 foot long from work, and decided to start poking around in the yard behind my place. There is an old back door that is now boarded up. You can tell because the trim is still there on the outside...

    Milk Bottle Abbreviations

    I read this thread earlier, and was just logging on to give the same response. Looks like you beat me to it. I suppose there are also Half Pints (HP), Half Gallons (HG), Gallons (G), but that may be confusing because I believe a quarter pint is sometimes called a gill.
