Re: Recap, plus more boooooze and refreshing beverages......
T-momma, thanks, none of these are really particularly valuable, but when grouped, they make for nice viewing. I was missing my dark amber star flask (honey one shown in first post), went huntin' around, found yet another box! Took this pic, these are some nice ones, wait till you see the colors, 2 teal crown caps 12 oz, mysterious lovely olive amber crown 12 oz, beautiful weird olive amber wine?, teal Hopkin's, nice clear Louisville pint, I will post all these latest bottles when the light is right in the third and final chapter of my boooze goods, coming soon..... I will then start work on my foodstuff post. Try to dig from the bottom up and best of luck to all diggers.
Just checked, the crowns and the nice clear whiskey are all half pints (8 oz)..

That is a nice, eclectic group of bottles. Great mix of colors in the window!
I fear you're cruizin' for a losin' when you prop those round-bottom and torpedo bottles in your window. I realize that they are a pain when a bottle won't stand on it's own.
One option to get them upright is with a doll stand like this, but you'd need the next size larger for a ginger ale bottle. This is the only really difficult bottle that I display, and I had to use a bit of stickum on the base of the bottle for security.
