I don't know much about such bottles, but I am tomorrow going back to the antique store to pick up some bottles and I was wondering if the unembossed amber bottle that resembles a cabin would be good to pick up? It's similar to, but a bit darker than the one in the picture and as I stated has no embossing, albeit it had a label at one point it appears. If I would bundle, I bet I could get it for ten bucks. Think it's an alright investment?

the bottle in your pic is of a st drakes bitters which go for more than a hundred bucks on e-bay, so I would think an unembossed example that looked a lot like a drakes would be well worth ten bucks, pick it up.........

So true! But, hey, I'm just a kid. I have several decades left to find one. A few Muskegon Bottling Works bottles were gone too. I almost picked up one Muskegon Bottling works piece for ten dollars, but didn't think it worth it so I picked this one up instead for five dollars-- bit more than I'd like, but of course, I liked it. Know anything about it?

Thanks. :) I'm still trying to research this particular one, but looks like I'll need a new thread in the soda pop bottles section to see if another person can help me. Need to do a few more searches first though. There has to be something on it out there.
