    "Beep" yields glass

    Got a beep on the tesero is was the Zenith carburetor part. Glad I dug it.
    I don't do much glass, was wondering when they had 4 digit phone numbers?
    Glass guys and gals any thoughts here?

    Re: "Beep" yields glass

    Did you try calling the number by chance

    In any case those ar around the era of 1920-1935. See if there are any numbers on the bottoms which would give you a more definate answer. Those may be worth some $$ for local collectors. Nice finds. jgas

    Also I would assume the area you are digging goes back a ways. The population of your area back then would suggest around 40 to 60 thousand people. The more phones they needed I would say that they would run out of combinations to use and then increase the numbers to 5, 6 and now 7....just a wild guess though

    Milk Bottle prices for the most part are only a local thing, so someone not living in your area more then likely have no idea of value... your best bet would be to clean them an list on ebay if you wanted to sell them...

    Thanks creeper71,,,
    I could not get a good picture of the bottoms,,,so made a crude diagram and photo'd that. I thought they where from like the seventys, but I guess they maybe older. I was born in 55 and don't remember these.
