I discovered this site yesterday and have been really enjoying reading the posts and seeing the pictures of all the old bottles. I made my first post yesterday and wanted to show more of what I've found. I bought a property last August with 3.5 acres in northeastern PA. There's a very old stone foundation on the back of the property with all kinds of bottles, old milk cans, gallon jugs and fruit jars all over the place. I have not even dug yet, these are bottles I've found on the surface. Can't wait till spring, I want to start digging!

The Como Beverage Co is a 1924 style Coke Cola soda water bottle and the are very collectable. Good one.

Very nice Stones too.

Can anyone tell me what the 7 up bottle at the top of this post is worth? I was contacted by a member who wants to buy it. I'll give it to her for shipping costs if they are not valuable, but I want to make sure I'm not giving away something with a lot of value.
Any responses would be appreciated.

Hey Tom, Thats the oldest of that style bottle. It has 8 bubbles around the 7up logo. The later ones had 7 bubbles. I don't think it's a big bucks bottle though.
