You have some nice bottles there, I like that blue soda.

Can you PLEASE edit your photos to cut out the white space and shrink them to fit a normal screen, thanks.

You have two sets of black people items, may be banks, metal or whatever. Had one red and wht bank booked for $500.00 sold in $400.00's. Lots of repros.
The milk glass chickens (seen them can't find book) but if the top of them come off, they would be open salts, lots repros here can't recall the value. Need more help on chickens or any non bottle item, glad to help, e mail me. Not a dealer but sell some and buy some.
