Just Finished the New Shelf!

Well, I've re-arranged some of my collection and just added a 5" tall piece of safety glass across the bottom of the shelf to (hopefully) keep them from falling in an earthquake. Thought some of you would like to see.

nice bottles boog whats the paneled soda ???? whosyer !!

 

[Black_Boogers]

Hey Meech,

Thanks for the welcome! []

Whosyer, the paneled soda is an 8-sided "G. N. GERDES/S. F." on two panels, and "MINERAL WATER" on the opposite two. It's gotta' be one of the most common paneled sodas around, but I found it on the same day as the teal and the light olive-amber pontiled umbrellas and the UDOLFO'S. I also grabbed another pontiled umbrella that day, but sold it. That was one of my best diggin' days ever! []

Beautiful bottles! I have just designed and had a shelf built for my bottles. It's oak, about 8 ft. long with 5 shelves and a 1/4" dowel across the front in case of earthquakes.
There are more than 50 bottles on it now, none as nice as yours.
