A large collection was liquidated
somewhere in northern RI, and bottles started popping up all over the
place. I was a little late to the game, but a friend of mine bought
a Miller's Pharmacy Pascoag, RI pharmacy bottle. It was a
marvelous unlisted 8” example, and when he told me he was selling
it I couldn't say no!
I finally got to meet up with a local
digger who sold me a few bottles. Among them was a fascinating soda
embossed Fall River, Taunton, C.H.H., Newport, New Bedford.
While it's only ¼ RI, it's 100% cool, as the other one I have like
it has Coca-Cola on the shoulder!
Another antiquing find was fairly
mundane, but a heel embossed Nasonville Bottling Co. was
unlisted in clear.
I bought yet another George A.
Peckham Grocers Supplies Providence, RI to add to the horde.
This one is an early 6” version.
I returned to a massive 1920-30s dump
recently, and to my delight it started producing quite a few late
throws! A large Caswell, Massey & Co. NY & Newport
medicine was a most welcome find.
