Rosenberger's Ginger Ale - Camden, NJ apparently the original owner of this place liked to mix his whiskey and bitters with ginger ale and orange soda :)

Thanks Wheela and rpinkham! I just posted the rosenberger's ginger ale which is from Jersey, but most appear to be philadelphia or surrounding PA suburbs. There are more coming! Takes me awhile to take the pics and get them sized and posted, and there are more down there in the creepy hiding place, but I need to wait for my husband to fish them out... because... well it's creepy ;)

And hey, $10-15 is pretty cool in my book, but I'm thinking along the lines of selling the lot. I'm not good with selling them individually because that requires a lot more work than i'm willing to invest. truly, i didn't do anything to get them other than buy the house that happened to have a hidden area in the basement full of old bottles and of course, some random bottles stashed throughout the basement in interesting places! They were a "surprise" find among the many other "surprise" finds that came with this ole money pit :) Love my money pit, but some surprises were cool (like the bottles) and some surprises were NOT, like the electrical work. hee hee so, i'm not sure how to go about pricing all these things. Anyone have thoughts on values of them? individually or as a lot? I think there are about 30 of the green glass bottles with the ceramic stops that I think were orange soda bottles... again.. bitters and orange soda... whew tougher than me!

Clicquot Club this one has the eskimo on the bottom with an R in a triangle? guess that's for the bottler? - several of these in this pale blue and in green.
