Also got this Olean Bottling Works one - nice Deco bottle, been watchign the twin to this one on the bay for weeks, found this one for 1/5 the cost

not a very good pic, opposite side is identical.

If you get through Buffalo again stop by for a visit. I live five minutes from the bridge to Canada.

Cool, will keep that in mind, thanks

Although your info ( at left ) says Alabama, lol.... you near the Peace bridge .. if I don't get lost, might be fun - I always get turned around coming home, rt 20 / 20A is screwy, my dad said same thing, they got lost there, too.

Might be up in Geneseo this weekend, any leads on good dig spots or sellers in the area ?

I figure Alabama is where I'm from not where I'm at. The Alabama soda bottles are a lot more interesting.

I don't know where to find bottles in Geneseo. I remember a great shop at Watkins Glen across the street from the park.

Buffalo Bottle Show is the last weekend in September.
