Hi dollarbill,
Here's what I have done with a bunch of the 2.5 inch bottles !
I've recently picked up another dovetail Bromo Seltzer box that I'd like to fill like this one.
I have a box that fits the 2.5 inch......I will need 48 of this size (MUST be CORK bottles)
I also have a box that fits the 4 inch bittles....I will need 24 of these (also MUST be Cork bottles)
Any chance you could fill an order like this ??? Let me know what you would for them ??

Hi Ron,
Welcome to the forum, That's cool that you collect Bromos in all shapes,sizes and colors. I'm originally from Baltimore so I remember the Bromo tower in downtown Baltimore.
Here are some what I like to call "Rainbow Bromos" from a wet dump in San Francisco.

Thanks to all for making a new bee feel welcome.
I collect Bromo so I know it rather well. I am very impressed with the vast
Knowledge on this forum on all glass subjects.
I did a little bottle digging in the mid 60s. It was an old dump site next to the Pullman RR on the south side of Chicago. I got anything drug store and he got everything else. I sold most of my bottles years later to a doctor.
I remember a great Burnetts Cocoaine! Also several DR. KILMERS heart,
Kidney and another body part in cures and remedies.

Cool pile pic Bill. Those boxes are also cool, I've seen a couple on ebay but dropped out of bidding on them. The Baltimore book lists 2.5, 4, 5, 6.5, 7.5, 9 but the biggest I've ever seen was 8 so maybe it's a typo? They also list a 3.75 yellow green like the Red Dragon color but I've never seen one that size or that color though Chris has seen one that color. My 2.5 and 4 are light aqua they look clear but I've never seen a clear one. I'm still looking for a 4" in green.
