Bottle Bucket List

[epackage]

Great get Plum's, I was lucky enough to get my number 1 and 3 others in my top ten Paterson bottle this year, there's just something so satisfying collecting locals as compared to other collections IMHO....The history behind them is just great and the fact that one of my ancestors or those of my friends may have actually held these bottles at one time has always intrigued me. Here's hoping you score some more on your list, I always have my eyes open for your stuff....Jim

Any colored pharmacy that I don't have from SARATOGA
CONGRESS & EMPIRE HOTCHKISS SONS CW SARATOGA 1/2 pint
B.J. GOLDSMITH SARATOGA blob top and hutch
That would keep me happy for a while. GREAT THREAD!

Quite a few on my list but I'll narrow it down []

1. Cattell's Mineral Water that doesn't have its neck lopped off
2. An owl druggist
3. A case gin (common but I'd still like to find one)

id have to agree that local bottles give me alot more satisfaction than out of towners, however, i would never pass up a really cool bottle from elsewhere.

i just wish i could get into a site that had anything from the 1800's. the more diligent i am.. i will find one, one day.

My first one would be a Mrs. F. Bossinger Lewistown, PA beer bottle. Then, a Soult & Zerbe iron pontil Lewistown soda. I have one of these, but I bought it. I would love to pull an intact one from the ground myself. I have dug both of these bottles in pulverized condition []. ~Jim
