i have a 7.5 oz hfc and also a pint hutch. bunch of o'dills in a wooden crate at the shop in norway. from what i understand odill was one of the first miners to test drill in norway mi. awhile back i tried to buy an odill seltzer bottle from don at wishing well in im but he said he wants to donate it to the museum in norway. someday you might have something i don't have. getting harder & harder to find up bottles i don't have.

yah..you are definitely amassing a sweet collection.... I'm going to hunt some more Kik's down at the farm...I've only got 2 or 3 right now packed away...
that's about as rare as I get with ACL's for collectors up here...

what's a kik's bottle ?

 

[ironmountain]

a soda made in houghton/hancock that was only distributed up there as far as I know...I've only ever seen them when digging them up. I'll have to dig a pic out..when I switched phones i dumped a bunch of pics...

my bad..Nik's....i always do that.

yep got that one. i going to crystal falls saturday to see what's going on at the flea market in town

 

[ironmountain]

they have one in CF? I've only been to the one in town here...last year it was decent for this size of a town...quite a few ppl there and daughter and i always found cool stuff...now it's gone downhill....

where's the CF one at?

when I was growing up there was a huge flea market every weekend at a local movie theater...the parking lot was dirt and roughly 3acres at the time..thought they'd discontinued it, but my mom said it's just as big now and held in the same spot... going to hit that this fall when we go back down...
