Hi All, it would seem that I did not reply to the earlier topic, so I had better do so for this one.
One Saturday afternoon, wanting something to do, I drove to a country town some 100 kilometres from Adelaide, called Murray Bridge. While I was wandering through the scrubland outside the town, I came across this jar, which had very nicely embossed "Bacchus Marsh Malted Milk", so I picked it up and drove home. I can remember trying to find out about it, and I eventually did so.
From then on, circa 1967, I began to collect bottles.
However, I was foolish enough to sell the jar some time later.
Recently, I found another one, and I still have this one.
