    How much is this baby worth!?

    I found a bottle this weekend by an old rock foundation in the woods. It is a really heavy bottle. the glass is about a quarter inch thick. IT EVEN HAS AIR BUBBLES IN THE GLASS. I believe it is an old soda bottle. I will try and post pics as soon as i get it cleaned up. Embossed on it is CHAS D BOEKE WATERLOO ILLS. and embossed on the bottom is the large letter "B". Any info on this bottle would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!!

    pics coming soon

    More info will help. Is it an applied lip? Is there a mold line? What color is the bottle? Pics would really help.
    Never underestimate the stupidity of people.

    All I can tell you is that he is listed as a "manufacturer" in 1919 in Waterloo, Ill. I guess the bottle looks like this?-
