Before you upload the picture, try reducing the size of the photo. Then upload the smaller picture. Try one and see if it works.
Nice bottles
Congrats

I noticed if I click on them to open full size they come up right. I'll get some better daylight pics and reload them later and try making them smaller
 

Nice!!! Congrats!!!
 

What a sweet haul of old bottles...you did good, Ken!!
 

I saw that listing and wanted to drive down to get those! I like the bottle crates also. Glad you found some keepers!
 

I resized one of your pictures from 4000 to 1000 pixels for the largest size. Your pic was originally 4000X3000 pixels.

That looks like it was a great buy, I'm just happy that I'm not the one having to wash them all out. :laughing7:
The cork top medicine bottles and the Canada Dry crate are my favourites.

It amazes me how thick the base is on this bottle!
