Hi all,
I'm new to this forum and completely new to bottles. However, when I bought my 1923 house from the original owners, who were hoarders... in the clean up, I found a lot of old bottles. there are about 60 in total. A bunch are what appear to be green soda bottles with ceramic tops on them attached. There are also though some interesting looking bottles, mostly soda, liquor and bitters from what i can tell and most from the philadelphia region. Here's the thing, i'm not a professional bottle collector and don't intend to be. Someone should be enjoying these bottles rather than them sitting in my basement. So. what to do? I will post pics of some of them. Here's the first it's a rather large bottle compared to the rest and says Wm Aldworth I'm not unrealistic and don't think they are worth a fortune, but do think they have some value to the right regional buyer.

You've got some nice stuff there! I love blobs like those you've posted. Unfortunately, being from such a large city as Philly, they probably aren't worth more than $10-15 each.

I'm from Jersey too, you find anything from here? Welcome to the forum, by the way! We could always use more Joisey folks on this forum... [;)]
