McElree's Cardui - There is a blob of glass on the left of the M that seems to be a mistake, and the C looks an awful lot like a G. This one has a twist cap.

Smirnoff and Crown Royal are friends?

I think the Pepsi box is cool... the bottles look a bit ..how to say... well, they are of the "free" type I think.. hope this does not offend, just trying to keep it real.. anyhow I might be wrong! [8|]

Leesburg isn't a big town, think those SS cokes might be good ones? I wouldn't complain! Good stuff for free. Think the person who hooked em up might know where some more are to be found?

yes yes the idea of someone giving you something for free is good and bad. you really don't want to turn them down because it's free and the next time what ever they come up with could be really something you want or need ,,,, or even valuable..think about it

ORIGINAL: Plumbata

The guy who found them probably picked them up out of ditches/contruction sites, but I've only ever seen broken ones. Then again I don't do much digging. Basically this set of bottles is just enough to keep me interested, and enough to make me wish SOMEBODY around here would get out there and actively hunt/dig with me.

Nostaliga: It's gonna be a sifter, hopefully producing far more than 5-10 dollars worth of items.

Yup! You never know what these guys will find, a buddy of mine knew a construction worker that sold him common bottles for years until he found a $500+ bottle.... My friend was really happy [:)]
