Here's my only NM bottle. Lots of history to this spring.

Look for 'art glass' and marbles..

During the 1940s Akro Agate made beautiful marbles,little girls' glass tea sets and multicolored glass lamps. McKee made 'Jadite' that flouresces under blacklight. These are stunning treasures that the average bottle digger casts aside. I have collected hundreds of pounds of this 'art glass' at the dumpsite I've been excavating daily since March of 2003 near Trona,Ca.
