Museums

I went to the local history museum the other day. While I was there, there was a room that had nothing but bottles. I saw some old medicines, flasks, sodas. All kinds of bottles. My camera was out of batteries though. I was wondering how they got all of those bottles? There thousands and thousands of them and they were mostly local.

Museums generally get bottles through donation. Collectors donate bottles or may leave their collection to them when the pass on. Some could also be on loan by collectors.
