Bottles!

[sctirish]

I started collecting old bottle last September. I have bought a few from a guy at the local flea market but nothing to holler about. Last weekend I went to a yard sale that was my last hunt of the day. Nothing much on the tables but there was a dirty box of bottles in the corner. She wasn't sure if she wanted to sell them but eventually she sold them to me for a dollar each.

Hello sctirish,

Welcome to TNet, and thanks for showing us your buys. Excellence in yard sailing, sir. I do like those mug based Hutchinsons. The Becker Hygeia is a beautiful example of mould cutting.
