I've not posted in a long time, but recently went to a couple bottle shows and try to hit antique malls in my spare time. I might be retiring next April and it will give me more time to get out and look around. I've always been a collector of ACLs, commemoratives (except the 8 oz. Cokes)...
Drove over to Ohio yesterday and hit a few malls, found a few bottles. Never a lot out there it seems but did find 23, plus an older Pepsi Free/Pepsi gym bag that was a giveaway at a San Diego Padres game. I already had the Honey bottle in the third picture, but not the one that was just in white.
