I'm suprised at this milk bottle

[Yooper14]

Hello All,
Thought I'd post another bottle I'm currently selling on the *bay. Not because I'm trying to advertise it, but simply because I'm suprised at the price. I listed it last night, and by morning it had been bid up to $86.00!! It's a half-pint milk from a local dairy. I figured it was rare, as the dairy was very small and only in operation a short while. But sometimes with something from a rural geographic area, you don't attract the attention of the people collecting it. Looks like I was fortunate this time. What's the highest you've seen any half-pint sell for?

Hey, I saw this milk bottle on ebay earlier today. It is really cool, you don't see too many college dairies. I'm actually thinking about bidding on it. ( I'm only 16 I don't have a lot of cash) Some rare dairies bring good money. I went to an auction to bid on a 1/2 pint Walton Dairy from Ashland,Ohio and I didn't even have time to get my hand up. It sold for $475.00!!!!!! I was kind of disappointed. Oh Well!

I have one that Says Milk protector on it and it is embossed with a picture of a man milking a cow. The top is shaped like a pitcher. A friend was going to throw it away so I took it.

Milk bottles are one of the hottest areas in bottle collecting. They bring together a wide cross section of collectors. I think values are going to continue to go up as more people become interested in their local bottles.
