last year's pop bottles

#1

Post by tomcd62 »

Found these bottles in various northern Minnesota dumps last season. Just got around to an initial cleaning, always afraid to soak long and scrub hard. I don't collect these so any one interested in them PM me. also don't want to clean any further. An antique dealer told me that he was paid to destroy several dozen cases of the arrowhead map bottles when he was a kid working at a grocery store in Virginia ,MN. He said people would steal them from a fenced in storage area behind the store and then turn them in for the deposit again and again. this was long after the bottle was retired so the store owner had him break them at the city dump.
