These are a few that I've dug from my area. Adler's brewing, Jackson, one from Detroit also. I had several half-gallon blobs that I lost years ago, wish I still had them. An elderly aunt of mine invited me out to her farm when I was younger, she directed me to a pile of old blob beers and sodas in mint condition up in the hayloft of the barn. I got 'em but only have a couple left somewhere.
Also a few patent medicines, including a local druggist from Jackson, circa 1895. Also a poison bottle from the same period.
The generic swamp root remedy is one of my favorite first older digs.

Great bottles. :thumbsup: The Dr. Kilmer's kidney bottle is on my list but I do have a sample bottle. It's cool to see a blob top with the stopper. Nice find's.

Nice bunch of glass! Did you know that later they made the kidney one with no embossed letters but a paper label went into the kidney shape. :)

I didn't know that Mike. I do know that there were lots of color variations, same with the Warner's Safes, (another one of my favorites), lots of different colors.

And didn't one of these just make the banner?
That's the truth, Spooky, although there are thousands of them out there!
