Manchester & Shupps Grove Bottles

[jays emporium]

We just got back from a month long trip to the east coast, through 20 states. We set up at 3 shows and did a lot of buying as well as selling. Here are some of the bottles I picked up. First, 3 nice bottles for resale.

Since I first saw one of these in 1974 I have wanted one. My name is Kasper but Casper is as close as I can get embossed on a bottle. I always put it off because they are not rare but expensive. I finally found a dealer at Shupps Grove who was willing to take part of it in trade and now have this for my collection.
I'll post some more finds in the Soda section and another post here for non-bottle finds.
Thanks for looking.

I forgot something. At Shupps Grove they think Hutchinsons are junk bottles. I went wild and bought these, $3 - $10. except the cobalt one from Detroit. It was $15 but has a crack.
