With the introduction of mass produced
bottles with uniform size and capacity,everything from tea to
polish was packaged in glass,whereas before brown paper and string
had been the preffered choice of most chemists grocers and the
like.Baby feeders too were now embossed with pictures and advertising,where
before they had been stoneware and rarely decorated at all.This
means there is a wealth of glass out there and
Serious collectors start to specialize before too long.
Bottles with the word cure,sauces,inks,chemist rounds,
Tonics,smelling salts and so on.All can make a magnificent themed
collection.I myself collect anything,if it appeals I can always
find room on the shelf for it somwhere. |
