The thing that delights me the most about this hobby is finding variations. Sometimes they are quite subtle & undocumented. (See the pair or Weckerle greens on this thread) My database has become as much as an obsession as my collection. I created it based on the lists in John Tutton's book Udderly Delightful & Bill Fishers book American & Canadian Guide of Amber Milk Bottles but have added new items as I discover them. It is definitely a work in progress with the US amber quarts information the most comprehensive. Some of the photo's are very ordinary & I overwrite them as I take/receive better ones. If anyone would like a copy send me a PM. I can customize the output to suit your particular area of interest.Since I am not deep into bottles, I had no idea something like this kind of collection could be put together. I knew there were a few amber ones here and there, but had no idea about the green ones or how many amber ones could be found! I am stunned by the beauty of this amazing collection. It makes me wish I had more room for sure!
