Once upon a time.....
Not new to the site, but not active until recently -- more time now, partly retired. Interest is in the bottled water industry of Calif and especially So Calif, trying to sort out which manufacturers made which bottles for whom and when -- don't ask me why. (It's not a secret, I just don't know.) Began collecting the 5-gallon bottles about 40 years ago, briefly, then took a 30+ year break (hate to use that word on this site), busy with family, career (silly excuses), the habit rekindled maybe 3-4 years ago. Interested in exchanging info re these big bottles - anyone else similarly foolish? Have not been digging -- but enjoy that sort of thing -- recognizing that no one has ever dug out a 5-gallon bottle - have they? Anyway, having fun reading all of your posts, will post some images, have some queries, will chime in from time to time, recognizing that I am ignorant about most of this stuff, but like to research, a different digging.
Love that glass.
And they all lived happily ever after. The END.
