Please look at these pictures and list. After speaking to Ms. Holcomb after a Facebook post, I asked her to send pictures and a list of the bottles donated. I really do not see anything outside of the $1 – $15 apiece range. Maybe there is a sleeper or two.
Hello, Ferdinand,
I finally got a list together of the bottle collection that we have at the museum. As a courtesy, I am sending the list and five pictures to you and Barbara Puckett before sending them to anyone else or posting them on-line. I would highly value your opinion. I apologize for the quality of the pictures. I would normally take much more time and be far more particular with details. Alas, my time is extremely limited right now. Please review at your convenience. We would like to sell the entire collection and everything is being sold “as is.” We are planning to entertain offers until July 31st – unless something remarkable happens.
Thank you, Ferdinand. I appreciate your time and consideration.

Ferdinand,
This is exactly the type of bottles that most of the forum members of the AntiqueBottle.net website write and talk about. Send a link of this to them.
Only one bottle caught my eye. It is the Morley bottle. Although not embossed so it is a Texas bottle. Not very valuable, but still a nice piece of history. They can’t all Price’s Patent Texas Tonic bottles.
