    Send me your wish-list

    I am noticing in my bottle dealing travels that there are any number of sodas sitting collecting dust in shops simply because they are sitting in the wrong part of the country. A nice hutch from illinios may sit on a shelf forever here in West Tennessee, where it would move in a matter of...

    Well you know me, the eternal optimist, I found this in one of my bottle hunting creeks and immediately decided it was a civil war relic related to a company B. Fact is I find stuff in this creek from modern times to rarely pre-1900 and rarer still pontil shards. There was a lot of civil...
