Old labels + old bottles

[kwalker]

I was digging the other day and came into a stash of about 8 to 10 tall green bottles. Thanks to cyberdigger, I was able to get eight paper labels no charge and as promised, I threw on some pictures of the finished product. Even though they're not historically accurate, I was going to recycle the green bottles and cyber generously offered these labels. What do you guys think?

The candidates

Each label got one of these to mark it as non-original

The finished products!

thanks for letting me see their afterlife.. []

The 12oz labels look great.. the rest.. give them to people who use the metric system.. []

I went with of all things a wallpaper adhesive. It's more viscus than white glue and doesn't crinkle the paper. I just took a paint brush and applied it on the border of it and stuck it on before pressing out all the ripples and bubbles. It prevents the center from bubbling and crinkling.

I was thinking about the measurements before I got them. When I noticed some said 12 oz. I laughed and said forget it. They look nice from a distance and I'm not less-satisfied with the measurements anyway. My favorite has to be the Dixie Spring or the CA. But all of them are great []
