Here are my prized bottles

Very very nice collection and display cabinets! I bet it took a long time to assemble? I trust you've been to the Senator Heinz Museum in Pittsburgh and seen the Heinz displays.

I started to collect pickles in earnest 10 years ago.

Some of the labeled examples are marriages,but with the correct labels,Mainly the Blairs.

Ever Since I was a little kid I have always loved pickles.Probably why I collected their bottles.

Well that's it for now,Did I mention I also have collected sauce bottles and mustards for about 20 years.I have a copy of Zumwalts book filled with penciled notations of food bottles she doesn't have listed.There must be a whole boat load out there.I also collect 1/2 pint flasks,Handled chestnuts,nippers. Pretty soon I will have to start letting go of my 39 year collections and get them into someone elses hands.By for now and keep diggin
