hi glen, that is one nice collection of white house. i have a small collection compared to yours. i really like the light house one. my husband got me the green ballerina bottle at the balt. bottle show. i have some of the jelly jars, but no luck with digging the lids. good luck with your collection. rhona
Hi,
I appreciate you’ll interest in the collection. At one time White House was big around here but as everything else it has drop off a little. I just keep them now and enjoy looking at the many different types there were in the 1920.[]
Nice White House collection. I have a few of the jelly jars and a clear "onion bottle" from my diggings to date. Unfortunately I kocked a little chip off the onion bottle when my shovel found it[] I have one flat lid with a picture of a building and White House written on it.
Thanks for sharing the pictures. Nice displaying also. Marvin
A few years ago ,like you said,white house stuff was going for unreal prices,my brother in laws' nephew was paying $400 for the smallest apple.He has four complete sets of all the different sizes of apples.Have you ever seen the painted apple ?I would love to have one ,but don't know if it was just an advertizing peice or what. I saw it in the white house guide I had and gave it to my brother in law,so I don't remember what was said about it. GREAT COLLECTION!
hey glass man i saw a painted apple in an antique mall the paint was old and flaking off so they must have sold em to the public not positive on that... mike
You should be very proud of the nice collection you have put together.You have them displayed very well.I am envious of collectors like you that can stay focused on one type of bottle. I am a much better at gathering than I am at displaying.My stuff is always a mess.Thanks again for sharing and keep showing us more.If I come across any White House stuff you will be the first to know.Doug
Since I know very little about them, i have a few questions about a White House jug that i have, maybe you can help.
Every WH jug that i have seen (except this one) has one slanted handle by the spout. My uneducated guess says that this is an early jug. True??
It has "PAT. APPL'D FOR" embossed on the bottom, and is 9 1/2" tall.
Age?? Value??
thanks for any help.
yo jughead, prob earlier version, heres a pix of my white house collection, notice the handles on the apples there different, mine do not read pat applied for mike
