Sorry, I can't help you there, but if you or anyone else is interested, I have some nice Buffalo Lithia newspaper ads from the late 1800s that I would sell or trade.

Hi gavery, Do any of your Lithia Bottles have ground glass stoppers? I have always had a thing for old Spring Water Bottles with Ground Stoppers. I am looking for a Bear Spring Water Bottle for a friend that has a stopper and wants a bottle; to put it in. The early Chemung Water Bottles had a really neat embossed tall indian on them. Those early ones all had ground stoppers. Please let me know - but I will be on the road for a week and might not get to see a post, Try a PM. It might work. Thanks RED Matthews

you do not have any colored ones? I would imagine in a collection that big there must be a few besides the aqua ones. The three you showed are all the common stlye, and worth 20 bucks a piece or so. Problem is they are common and do not sell well, so you not going to be able to sell them all easily. There isnt a dealer in his right mind who would by the lot off ya, even if you sold them for 2 bucks a piece!

Better check em for odd color, misspelling and totally different variations or other litha bottles in the bunch...

they are great bottles... I alwasy thought...
