Must have been the forerunner to the missing child photos.Picked this up today at a Antique Store, I don't usually like the newer Square type Milk Bottles but I liked the Speed Kills P.S.A. (public service anouncment) Statement on Bottle. Anybody else ever see one like this? LEON.View attachment 230422
Bumper, we'll have to wait and see what the next trend isI've always been a kind of old milk bottle kind of guy. I remember being excited as a teenager when I dug up local "round" milk bottles, so I was kind of saddened to see Ralph Finch's editorial in the recent AB&GC where he said milk bottles, barber bottles, and others that used to be collectible, have gone the way of Beanie Babies, as in, a diminished collectible status.
Morals long forgotten, at least in some areas.There have been many milk bottle images that featured public service announcements about driving carefully to protect the children. Here are a few from the 1940s.
Peter, those are some good looking milks.There have been many milk bottle images that featured public service announcements about driving carefully to protect the children. Here are a few from the 1940s.

Do you collect milks in general or by particular theme? I only recently got interested and collect more based on geography. The wife likes the colors, and I was able to expand my display space.
Milks don't have a big following in Texas, but I understand that is different elsewhere. Its been fun learning about them, and only recently heard about theme collecting (WWII, nursery rhyme, etc).
