Sorry for the overload of pics,but I am very passionate about these bottles and wanted to share.I have truly been blessed to have dug so many fine bottles from my favorite category over the years.I hope it continues,but even if it doesn't the fun is in the hunt.If anyone has any embossed Cathedral sauces or cathedral sauces in color I would be interested in trading for,or purchasing them.I am not looking for bargains and will gladly pay top dollar,there are not many out there and even less available for purchase.Thanks and I hope you guys enjoy,Doug

Those are some of the most popular, rarest and most sought after cathedral sauces and pickle bottles.
Any cathedral sauces that are embossed or any other color than aqua are worth a lot of money. The Shrivers is also one of the most sought after embossed sauces around.
Excellent finds, many diggers have dug for years and haven't ever dug a quarter of what you have.
Great bottles and pictures. Thank you for sharing those beautiful finds of yours.

Hey Lobey,
Don't you dare not post your bottles. Any bottle is that you have is worth posting.

Well, I am sort of with Lobes on this one. After seeing these bottles, I am reluctant to try and post any of my mediocre stuff. But what the heck, I am pretty toughed skinned, and maybe someone could use a laugh this evening ! Here is a mustard jar I like really well, not sure how old it is , but it is different from most you find. This jar has an embossed Eagle on the front of the jar, embossed Giessen's Union Mustard on the back side. Looks to have an applied ring top. Stands 5" tall

Doug,
Thanks so much for posting pictures of your incredible bottles! My favorite is the one embossed St. Louis - Both of my parents and I were born in Missouri, so the Missouri bottles always catch my eye! I also love an iron pontil!
