Not the best photo, but here is a miscellaneous bottle cabinet. The first shelf has scarce Augusta, GA colored meds, including a Riverswamp Chill & Fever Cure with embossed alligator. The next two rows are my colored umbrella ink collection. A row of Drakes in colors follows on the 4th row. The fifth row has a few barrels and 3 southern bitters. The yellow square bitters is the only Dr. Tutt's Golden Eagle bitters known in the color. The bottom row has a couple of figural bitters, 2 cobalt Solomon's Bitters, and 3 sizes of the South Carolina Dispensary flasks (scarce in amber). This is it for tonight!

Between those and the sodas, you have blasted the vast bulk of us out of the water so to speak on collections. VERY NICE and thanks for sharing. I have yet to check my powerball ticket tonight!?!? Many thanks for sharing an AWESOME collection. Perhaps some close ups would further feed us? Please share.

PD

Thanks for the nice comments. The next 2 photos are of a couple of the rarest southern colored sodas known - a pyramid shaped blue Alfs and a side black Alf's, from Charleston, SC

This has got to be one of my favorite southern sodas. An early Baltimore Glassworks made piece most likely. The mold and lip style is very similar to the sided sodas from Baltimore.

Southernsodacollector can you post a picture of the soda bottle in the 5th display case, going from left to right, 3rd shelf down, kind of a pinkish color.
Thanx, Chris

That's a beauty, I didn't know they came in that color. Do you have any Eastern sodas in your collection ?

Jesus, thats probably 30 grand worth of antique bottles, my lowly bottle collection would whimper in fear and have its tail tucked in if it were anywhere near your collection.
