Congrads on the WIFE...hope she likes sodas? The Weston Bottle Show seemed bigger. We had a few new dealers show up. The street antique fair was bigger also. I believe this Show will be a must for all bottle & Antique collectors very soon! Don't think we had the quality of WV bottles as years past...but it was still great. I picked up an unlisted green glass DRINK IT acl soda from Buckhannon, WV. I can share a photo if anyone requests one. Hope you can swing over to Point Pleasant bottle show someday. Charlie Perry.

Hi Zane, great to see you on the Bottle Show train. You're going to meet some of the best people in the world! SHAME on me...I cracked that Dr Custer's Sarasparilla Bottle from Huntington W est Virginia. I didn't pack it well enough after the Mansfield show. DODO happens! gotta go, Charlie.... Hope to see you in Pt Pleasant.

No problem, The slug plate Berkeley is good but not great, I value them ~$30. It comes in three sizes...one size maybe a little better than the others. Charlie
My WV milk bottle is $33...it will pay for itself.

Wow that one sounds similar to this one from the Bluefield Bottling Company dated 1927. I'll have to keep my eyes open for those. I've seen the Bluefield candy company Lemon Kola and another variation with horizontal rings around the body. The Lemon Kola Bottling Works slug plate is a new one. I knew there had to be a Greenspon bottle from Bluefield, I'll have to keep my eyes out for that one as well.

Are there any acls from Princeton or Bluefield in your book? Princeton had a Pepsi bottling company during the acl era and Bluefield only had a coca cola bottler during the same period, so I doubt they had much, but I am wondering if they had any other brands in acl bottles.
