Heres some junk i picked up along railroads while lookin' for insulators, gaage sales, and antique stores in the past year or so. I like bottles and all, but i have a difficult time finding any around here so heres what i got.
from right to left:
BIM 3-in-1 oil found in New York, i'll go back there some time
French Gloss bottle, bought it for the crude top and milk swirls
looks like an old flask, says W. Mc. C. & C. in a circle in a raised dimple in the base
bought the clear flask for the stretched looking lip, says guaranteed full 1/2 pint
and some big ABM med i found where glen mary trestle used to be. Also some busted beers and a busted wine near by where i got this one.

left to right again
a green certo bottle looking bottle
crown bottling works bottle out of delaware, ohio
my favorite found bottle, a wescola soda that i found in a trash pit with some 40's-50's stuff. The bottle looks older than that, and it's a nice looking bottle with all the stars and junk. Any info on this one it much appreciated.
And a big burkhardt's bottle from around 1904-1918. Figured it was a nice ohio bottle, and it had what looked like a crown top without the mold seam going into the lip, which is odd to me.

i found out that wesco was a division of Kroger so far, but i couldn't find out anything about the bottle. I haven't seen many of them, theres a few on this forum but i always forget to look for them at bottle shows.
I'll look for more stuff to post when i go out lookin for insulators in the near future
