Two rare sodas: a highly coveted by local collectors Fritz von Fricken from Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn, NY
and J.T. Fahy from a small town of Rosebank on Staten Island.
Wow Coldwater.
Your shards assortment might be better than my main collection. Certainly older. I almost never hit the kind of age you are showing. I honestly don't think you are a hoarder for keeping them, but that's coming from someone who does the same...
My question is . . . While I understand it totally blows that these are broken, aren't you encouraged or excited at the bottom that you are in the right spot and potentially on the verge of great finds?
Blobbottle you are absolutely right, I love the shards it tells me I'm in the right area. If you ever find yourself in NH and Me let me know I will introduce you to some abnormally large snapper turtles and maybe find a bottle or three. Kostgar you have some nice shards n heartbreaks there. I love that guys name Fritz von Fricken.
Wow, those are some beauties, even broken. I occasionally find a fragment of that gray salt-glazed crockery but never anything stamped. Thanks for posting these!
