What different kinds of Bromo's do y'all dig around your area? These were all dug in or around Lex. Ky.

Mike,

PM me your address if you want one. Dug around 50 of them in two hours once. Very common in some areas. Again, the Glassworks mag ran a story way back about a guy digging a pickup truck load of them. The rest of mine are going to Hawaii for Rocky.

PD

Yeah Mike, that's a Warner's Bromo Soda. The one on the left is a Brownatone. I threw it in there with them because it is very similar to the others. These are all fairly common but I mostly seem to dig the Seltzers.

Thanks for the pic... crappy or not. LOL I'll bet someone could get a pretty good run of these things going if they tried. Some may be common in some areas and not so common in others. You have several there that I've never dug personally. I think that Red Dragon comes in amber as well?
