Back to the smokehouse again - lotsa' old bottles this time

Today I went back to the smokehouse where I got all those tools a couple of days ago. This time I asked him if I could just root around and "clean the place up" a little.

The old gentleman agreed and I immediately found a large pile of old bottles halfway buried around the back of the building. Many were broken from tree roots cracking them. Sliced my finger up pretty good too. (Protip: wear gloves next time moron)

I guess most are from the 60's and 70's. I don't think any are that valuable but I could be wrong. I have only just started cleaning them up.

The small "non-refillable" Coke bottle, third from the right
and the brown Orange Crush bottles are pretty collectible! :icon_thumright:

Best of luck to you buddy,
Dave

Is that the one on the left? It has the name of my hometown on the bottom. We had a bottling plant here at one time.

EDIT: I meant on the RIGHT

It was a long day yesterday...
