My bottle and can collection

What do you think?

That's a very cool collection that you've got, there.

Kick ass.

I like the bottles the best.
I collect funky bottle caps, but I have high standards so I don't have very many.

Damn, you do collect bottles and cans! NICE, VERY NICE! I collect those pale green sometimes blue-green antique bottles. I bought some for $8.00 and under at a thrift store in Portsmouth, Virginia probably close to 20 years ago and I was told by a dealer that they are worth at least ten times that amount today. It all depends up the demand you know. That's a great collection you have. Thanks for sharing.

Someone told me those small blue antique glass bottles are old opium bottles.

Steeil Reserve tastes terrible

might recommend some Belgian wheat beers, German lagers.
I liked Fat Tire
Newcastle's good too, but it's a brown ale

my father collect cans too, he sale it for extra money. he like doing it.

cool collection

I know. That's why I drink it very, very, very cold.

I wouldn't doubt that some of them were used for opium. They were used for all kinds of things. Some of them have names of people and some have names of what was in them. No labels just a raised(relief) type of inprint of the glass.

I collect antique Mason and Ball Jars as well.

I have a not too old Bud bottle (short and fat barrel looking thing) and Pepsi bottle from the 1970's I picked up from a ghost town next to the copper mine I used to work at.

One guy would go digging around the porches of the abandon houses and collect Cracker Jack Premiums and sell them. Those were really cool too.

carcker jack premiums? what are those?

@ SEAN

Cracker Jack premiums are the little toys they use to put in the Cracker Jacks for kids.
-------------------------------------------------------------
Evidently the kids who lived in the newer ghost town, Silver Bell (not the old ghost town, Silverbell) dropped a lot of them on or around the porches of the homes. Premiums are toys or whatever you get in Happy Meals and cereal boxes.
-------------------------------------------------------------
They use to be real toys in Cracker Jacks and cereals. Now Cracker Jacks have this weird paper that has puzzles or what-not on it.

what a cop out .

I can agree with just about everything on that list except for the bud light and the busch light. I don't like light beers but natty light isn't that bad. I don't mind Steel Reserve if it's cold, though Colt 45 is a better 40 I think.

Nice collection.

maybe that's why i didn't like Steel Reserve. I drank it while it was cold, but not ice cold. & to me, it just tasted exceptionally bitter and nasty
