Cool bottle story

anordstr · Jul 9, 2013

None of my friends found this story that cool, so I figured I'd share it here.

A few years ago I went to visit my buddy at his dorm at Michigan State University. They were doing construction on the road that went to his dorm so I had to park decently far away. On my walk to his dorm I came across a garbage pile that they had dug up. I rummaged through it and found a bunch of old bottles and some old plates. I took the bottles that were intact because they were just going to be put in the dumpster. After I was able to get the dirt off of one of them I noticed it looked kind of familiar. Did some research on the bottle markings and it turns out its a Heinz bottle from 1918! I love stumbling across cool stuff like that.

Happy Hunting all!

Well, are you going to just stand there and talk about em' or going to post a picture of them there pilgrim? {my best John Wayne imitation}

All kidding aside, I would like to see a picture if you have one.

Also had that little porcelain handle to something, and the old sun sweet bottle

You have a nice bottle but not high end in price or collectable as other bottles. If I were you, I would sit in the sun and perhaps it will take on a purple tint. Good luck.
