Dug a hutchinson soda and others

[cheese]

I actually found this sunday, but have been so busy I couldn't take pics and post till today. I went to the old dump in my town which is now abandoned and woods. I dug a pit and hit a few bottles. I got 5 of the old aqua coca cola bottles that also have "Thomsaville Ice & Mfg. co." on them. I got another that says "property of waycross bottling works Waycross GA" on it. The best is the hutchinson style soda from Thomasville Mfg Co.

I also found some other bottles that haven't been brought in yet, and my brother found a few too. He is holding the broken miniature whisky from Jacksonville. It's a shame the top is broken off, but he kept it anyway. I would have too.

Yes if you can find one that is embossed with I.T. (Indian Territory) or O.T. (Oklahoma Territory) they can definately be worth some bucks. I found a Poteau, I.T. hutch bottle a few years ago and it was worth $100+ then.

Most people don't realize how significant the Hutch bottles are. Even though they may not be very valuable, they are an important symbol of Americana!

Congrats on some terrific digs!
