Hello from the Deschutes River. My crew and I like to clean up the river one or twice a week and pull out all sort of things, like old bottles, logging equipment, plastic, clothes, but we do find the occasional treasure. My buddy Jarrod found a 1930s Old Spice after shave lotion bottle. Half of it looks hand painted. I absolutely love it. I bet some of you on here remember your father and grandfather with this bottle. I have degree in packaging engineering and it truly amazes me to see the transformation of technology from porcelain to a HDPE bottle. Enjoy. More treasures will be posted as they come in.

There's lots of History down that river...!
I used a bottle like that, in my teen years, my
dad gave me his shaving lotion......
