Hi Jeanne. Nice ACLs. The Mingo bottles in mint condition can bring anywhere from $25 on up.

Let me know if you find a Princess bottle in the barn. It is a WV bottle that I've been looking for.

Hey give me some more info on that bottle your looking for, I just stated this hobbie a few weeks ago when I was looking for An old Air condintioner that my grandfather told me was in the barn the kind you hang on the car window and put ice in! I found a few acls 70-80s the deeper I look the older I find I just get spooked some times whole scary barn thing weeds grown over it and all give me an ideal what I'm looking for. I have to use a mining light just to see where I'm going in there. I've only picked up one bottle at a yard sell. never dug a bottle, and found three in a car the rest have come from the barn I have 48 different bottles in my collection so far most fairly new but I seem to be getting in to the older ones now. found a few wheaton bottles two. give me a pic or color desript if you can!

Hi Craig and piratemom (Welcome to the forums) -
These also come in a red and white variation. One of each just ended on eBay, so check the 'completed items' area, doing a Mingo search. I watch these when they come up, but haven't seen that many lately. I'd love to have one one day, since I grew up in Mingo, but hate to pay those prices for ACLs. I've seen these go for $65+ in the past. They have come down a little.

Piratemom: You sound like me.... "the scary barn thing" [] That just means we have "a wild imagination" and that just may be a good thing! Welcome!
