    Short lived Rolling Rock bottle

    Seldom seen amber version of an otherwise very common green glass bottle. I found the correct label for it as well, only held on by the can wrap so as to be able to save it, they too don't seam to be very plentiful. Dated from 1982 as is the sales sticker for this bottle.

    Early Poth's Extra bottle

    Came across this early one, I checked Bruce's site and didn't see this exact one shown.

    Stroh beer bottle Detroit, Calling Leon!

    One I haven't seen before even after an extensive search on line, wondering if Leon or anyone else has seen or own this style Stroh bottle, and what label was used on it if possible. Looks to be a 7oz or 8oz size.

    Wagner/Lockheed quart, time to do some rubbing.

    Came across one of these yesterday morning, has all the tell-tale signs of being a beer or ale can underneath. I've read a few different options on how to remove the paint, but wanted to get some input from others that have done it.

    Early James Kinlen bottle

    Found this bottle while walking the edge of a nearby lake at a fishing spot I go to occasionally. The water has receded and so it was exposed and just laying on the surface. Back side is unfortunately broke out but at least the front displays well. A quick search only brought up a Hutch style (...

    A few finds from back in mid August.

    I happened to be in the area where a huge former community dump was back in August and decided while I was out there I'd stop and take a quick look around. I went there from a tip about three years ago and hauled back many of the bottle styles I collect, all were just on the surface. I wanted to...

    Pfeiffer can on eBay

    Noticed this what looks to be a common Johnny Pfeiffer blue pants, black shoes can, but shows no can maker. I know there's one can that was made by National Can Co. that's not shown in the book, but I've never seen this version before seeing the listing.

    Making Progress

    I guess collecting Progress bottles came as a result of the cone-top can I acquired a few years back. The can has a long story behind it that I won't go fully into, but will say it belonged to a now late friend I grew up with in my early years when he and I collected what we could get our hands...

    16 oz NDNR Beer & Ale bottles

    Well, not so new to the collection, but somewhat recent additions. Since I started collecting NDNR bottles (the more obscure the better) about six years ago, I rarely see them in the pint size, and still to date have not found any in the wild, either outdoor in the woods and or dumps, or in...

    A few recent additions.

    Dads paper label on a green glass Anchor Hocking Packie bottle still full with cap, first I've seen this bottle with an original label on it. The "Handy/Glass Can" embossed Dads I came across by chance, never seen one before, and after much searching, found no others or even mention of one, it's...

    Common NDNR beer bottles?....Not

    A little board this morning and I was looking through my many many beer bottles. Decided to post about these "should be common" bottles. I picked up all of these a few years back when I saw each (one only) listed for sale and bought them because after the many years watching beer bottle listings...

    Hiram Walker King of Clubs Whiskey

    Picked up this classic label this morning at the antique mall I have a case in. Yesterday I noticed pictures on the malls Facebook group page being posted by one of the guys that work there and in one of the pictures this bottle was shown mixed in with stuff in a new vendors floor space. I was...

    Another trip to my sons place.

    The old farm dump on his property is a hard one to judge as far as where the stuff from the 60's is and where the earlier stuff is. I was mainly only going to just stop and grab bottles I had left there before, but opted to dig in for about two hours or more. Once again brought back mostly 60's...

    Help with value or ID on some marbles

    I joinded two groups on FB hoping for good info, I haven't been to get a post to go through there, so I'll try here. I came across these at an antique store and I'm wondering if anyone sees any that might make it worth buying. I really would like to know more about the marble with "eyes" in the...

    Has potential....

    For as long and as often as I've been hitting flea markets, thrifts, and antique stores, this is the first paint-over can I've encountered. Might be a project for winter....lol

    One lonely bottle

    When for a ride on my wheeler then walked to a spot where I had found an antique car frame (looks to be from the teens) in a ravine over two decades ago. Found this embossed Renner's Grossvater along the treeline just up from where the car frame is. Also found a small scatter dump but nothing I...

    Hour dig at another one of my older dumping spots

    Found lots of bottles I didn't want, and very few of the ones I do. Was still nice to find two more Packie beers. The Citrate was one I didn't have in my small collection of those, it was the first bottle that popped out this morning and kinda surprised me, at first I thought it was a clear...

    Got out for a while this morning

    Tried searching an area again that I went to two years ago, one of the worst hikes I've ever done, just so over-grown and thick, it was a major battle trying to get to the spots I wanted, finally gave up and worked my way back to the main road, even that sucked but better than the way I went...

    Early to later Mr's Butterworth's bottles

    Figured I'd start a thread about these unloved bottles. I had asked in my return trip to the Duke dump thread if anyone knew why the de-bossed line was in the bottom of these earlier Butterworth bottles. The more I thought about it I may have answered my own question. I think it's there to keep...

    Return trip to the the Duke dump

    Did about an hour dig at the Duke dump I found a few weeks back, found five more of the embossed Dukes, seven more slick Glass Cans, two long neck slicks, one more late style Tavern bottle, and the now extremely rare Mr's Butterworth's bottle...lol....I found a broken one when I first dug this...
