Here's a killer grp from a WW2-Korean war vet. The bullion Japanese made 8th army patch with attached tab and the army school patch in bullion are killers. I gave $3 for the whole cigar box full.

I got two nice Blown in mold Paris Tenn drugstore bottles from a lady who found them in a old corn crib.

Here's the last one for today. This is a original set (not the modern repo) ball mini fruit jar S&P set. I gave a lady 50 cents fro these the lids have the script Ball on them. I have a lot more but it's still packed. I let at 6 am and got home around 5 pm it was a long day but fun and I got a lot of neat stuff for me and the bay. bob

Which small town is the 7up from, ATHENS?
Thanks, Terry.
P.S. Nice finds dude.

Yes Athens. The one with the raised 7 up is a early one and hard to get. The labels were not ACL they were the early painted labels thus they did not hold up and after a few return cycles the label was just about faded away. They were the translation period going from paper to early paint. The later real ACL'S minus the raised neck 7 up held up much better and even today they are still bright. . The two Paris Meds are on the bay. I started to keep them but I ahve so many meds from West Tenn I really don't need two more. They are rare and nice ones but they need a new home. I learned years ago I can't keep it all. Matter of fact out of this truck load I will keep a few Soda bottles that's about it. bob
