I saw east texas terry's post on purex bottles and was wondering if anyone knows which of these bottles is the oldest and which is the most desirable for collector's. I've been told it's the ear and not the handle.

These look like they'll all date to roughly the same period, it'd be hard to date them precisely without date codes. As for collectability I'm not aware of any screw-top Clorox bottles being desirable to collectors, they're one of those things that I always leave behind when I encounter them in the woods.

Thank you. I just like having them because they're just another "set" in my collection.

I like to knap the bottoms into a spearpoint. I try to keep the embossed word Clorox in the diamond on the one side.

That sounds like a really cool idea. Mind posting a picture of one? I have a bottom I've been saving
I most definitely will. I have one i am doing now. I will post pictures with the steps as I go. Sound cool. Just give me some time. It is in a box with my knapping stuff.
