It's been a while since I've been able to visit the forum and do some bottling, but I stopped at a garage sale today, and in my opinion hit the holy grail. First, I got a Chicago consolidated crown to match my hutch. I traded my friend for it, this was not from the garage sale
The garage sale starts here. I got a 1903 Gottfried (Heehee got fried) Brewing co for $5 and a Wm Mulvihill for $4. Sodasandbeers.com didn't have this bottle company at all. I don't even know if it's a soda or beer but I love it for some reason.
Next is Douglas Bottling co for $2 with an embossed bottle surrounding bottling co, which I thought was amazing and a Modern Beverages co for $2 as well. They're both stained pretty bad but Polident usually helps with that.
I also got my first squat soda for $9. "M. Keely" It's got a crude top. He had another company, but I ran out of money because of the next bottle. He also had about 10 Chicago Hutches for $10 apeice, so I will go back there later. He is open yearround.
Lastly, for $60, I got a cobalt Blue J.A.Lomax hutch. There are three on ebay, and the lowest buy it now is about $120. There is a small chip on the 8 in 18 and a broken bubble on one of the letters on the back. It also has a slightly dirty, but I'm not going to clean it. This is the best bottle I own and I would never have thought that I would find it at a garage sale. I'm lucky to find bottles at garage sales. Thanks for looking everyone!!!!
