I was looking around an old farmhouse and found a HUGE pile of bottles above ground. Looks like they just tossed the trash out the back door. Most bottles are common-Dr Kilmer's Swamp Root, Furst McNees, etc. All screw caps. But I kept digging and found a Floyd County Dairy, Rome, Georgia. 1 Pint, embossed. Patent Date 1931. A few chips, but nice. I don't know much about Milk bottles though. What are they going for? I hope to make it out there again before they start grading for a new Subdivision.

You're in luck...milk bottles are in big now for that era and ones folks want will fetch 20-40 bucks each easily. Now if you have what they want....fancy embossing? paint on bottle in good shape? Bottle in good shape? I'd round up the good ones. Put one or two on Ebay..see how they do...or put them all in your front yard on a table at 10 bucks a piece and see what shakes.
