What's the biggest bottle you have?

Thanks Tinna. I never really got a look at it backlit before I took the photo last night. It really brought out the color. I used a 100 watt reveal behind it. It normally sits in front of a wall in a dimly lit but mostly safe area.

What's the info on it...you said it's common just not in that size...is it a liquor store sales aid? Do you know the age and how did you acquire it? --If you tell me you dug it I am going to have to start looking for rental property up your way LOL ...Serious though...please tell!

These are common in the quart size, generally always at least on on ebay at any given time. There is also a sample size and a solid glass sample. I acquired this from Glass Works Auctions a couple of years ago and it was listed as a store display. The sides are actually fairly thin and a careless bump would spell trouble for this one. I'm kind of surprised it survived all these years as big of a target as it is.

Imagine the shock of digging one of these. If this was ever full back in the day you wouldn't want to be around the big fella that would have been swiggin' on it. Maybe Paul Bunyan...[]

Here's one of the biggest old bottles I've ever found. I like the shape of it but it is basically an over-sized slick. I thought I saw another post that said this might be an amonia bottle. The coke is a size reference. It is about 11 inches tall.

The largest I own at the moment would have to be a battle between these two. the big brown one is a bottle that my grabbed for me at a yard sale, and the other is the Coca-Cola 2 liter I own. Runner up would have to be the Dr. Pepper two liter that I bought after someone had turned it into a lamp. I worked on the design and actually got it to work better.
