My wife is out of town visiting relatives for a week so I decided this is a good time to do bottle inventory before the National show. While she is gone I moved all the bottles from the garage (where it is 102 degrees) into the house so I can work in the air conditioning. I sorted them by category and then sorted again into what I want to take to Brimfield, Manchester and Shipps Grove, and what I want to leave home but take to the Houston show and what is just suitable for flea markets. Everything was going great as I went through the categories: beers, bitters, drug stores, flasks, foods, household, inks, jars, medicines, mineral waters, poisons, whiskeys.
Then the SODAS. I guess I've gotten carried away buying sodas. I stacked up about 70 wooden cases of bottles. That's when this inventory thing started being like work. Well, I've got 4 shows coming up to liquidate some of this stuff.

Triple or double, yes, some 50+ alike. Not much in NDNR at all.
