    I don't care if I'm the 50th owner. That just makes more history for that piece right? Maybe more of a chance someone used it for a spitoon or pee cup or something though, eww.

    What is your reason for collecting bottles?

    Local history for me. I love my hometown! Don't get me wrong, if it's a neat bottle I'm keeping it regardless of where it's from. I'm a Realtor (don't cringe, it's not as bad as lawyer) and I love being able to go into old houses & businesses and see "what used to be". My first interest was...

    History of locations?

    The old city phone directories are pretty cool. I don't know if every city listed like mine but they used to put the # of people in household child, and occupations. I've found a few doctors and back then most worked from their home. Amen to old folks! Best stories and I have yet to ask...
