    Anyone collect glass bottles?
    I've found a few glass bottles and was wondering if anyone on here collected them.

    I've been buying fancy liquor bottles for my grandparents.
    My grandma has a fancy stiletto heel, and my grandpa has a intricate gun bottle.

    Some cool bottles. I like the shape of the one that says Gordon. When I was younger I found some small bottles along the railroad tracks that were for battery oil. Not sure what battery oil is used for, but the cool thing is they had Thomas Edison's signature cast in them. I guess they aren't super rare or anything, but still kind of novel. If you Google it you can find an image I'm sure. I also found a beer bottle in the Upper Penninsula while snorkling and turned out it was from the Menominee River Brewing Company which had been out of business since the 40's or something like that. This was in the late 70's when I had found it.

    She said $450. The vodka is made by the same guy that made the gun (Kalashnikov).

    I found these in a creek bed behind some old mill houses. Apparently before the city regulated trash pick up most people would just throw their trash behind their houses. I went out Tuesday and then today. I found everything from cleaning supplies to cosmetics to the drinks and the bottle that says Gordon's. I can't seem to find any details on what the contents actually were because when I looked it up I got 3 different answers, dry gin, medicine, and some sort of cleaner. So I'm still trying to dig up what I can find out. And as far as tossing them, wont be happening. My ex's dad collects bottles and he helped me fix my car so he'll be getting them. Here are a few pics of what else we found, and some of his collection. These first 4 images are a mix of his collection that needs a little cleaning and some that me found. All the larger bottles unfortunately we didn't find. http://img.tapatalk.com/d/12/10/26/unetaze7.jpg

    The next 5 are of some of his collection.

    And this last one the front bottle is a milk bottle I found. It's circa 1932 roughly. Unfortunately I don't know what dairy it's from.
