Around here the yardsales hibernate every fall and awake in the spring. Today at The Fiddlers was the first of the year for me. I had some birthday money to spend and I had fun buying some cheap bottles. Some already fit into a collection of mine and some are the start of one, some are give aways some to sell or trade. Most are common and thus more than fairly priced but all were between $4 and 25 cents. The seller is a local dealer who said he's been into bottles for 50 years, he's 85.

Here's why it was only $1.

Ok so I went a little crazy, spring fever after all that winter that I did enjoy in a masochistic kind of way! I couldn't help thinking that for these bottles at least, the prices were probably the same as in my 1969 John P. Adams "Bottle collecting in America" book! Lastly this RASERS ROOT BEER/ ONE BOTTLE MAKES FROM 5 to 10 GALLON and I especially like this DELICIOUS WHOLESOME SUMMER DRINK panel $2.

They are setting on one of my best yardsale buys from last season, a nice old platform scale for $20.
