Believe me, if you work hard and learn hard, before you know it, you will fill the cabinet, and will empty the box. Eldred's in East Dennis, MA used to be a great place to dump crap. We used to have a saying, "Eldred's is to snuff bottle collectors, as the ground is to MDs; it's where you hide your mistakes!"

Thanks Joey. I am trying very hard to not make any claims about the bottles. I don't want to spread misinformation and don't know enough yet to make definite statements. I appreciate your help in that area.

I really do need to see some real bottles. I might have a chance this weekend because I have found a museum close by that allegedly has some.

And I wish I could go to the convention! Would be nice to meet you guys.

I am sticking to my no more buying rule fairly well. I did buy a porcelain pea pod and eggplant that I couldn't resist, but I have such a huge backlog of bottles that I am trying to get to know them better before adding to them!

I have a nice old cabinet that I reserve for only "good" bottles that is rather empty, and a huge box next to my computer that is full of my 'discards' that seems to grow more and more every day!
