I used a painters marker to highlight the embossing of my bottle collection. I have many more in storage that I'll leave un-touched for now, but the ones here are much easier to read now.

Highlighting a collection

All of the Civil War relics on the shelf with the bottles are from Gettysburg. Most of it was found by the Rosensteels, or relic hunters right after the guns fell silent. The stuff on the bottom shelf came from different places. Shiloh, Manassas, Chancellorsville, Perryville, Stones River, and many more. Also not pictured is a Hotchkiss artillery shell...

What a great display!
That is a cool idea for bottles. I have some old ones in storage, I'll have to remember that trick. Not that it really matters if you like it, but does it hurt the value of them? (Cleaning coins almost always lowers the value.)Hong Kong, but from Indiana/Florida

I know, ha ha!
Half of the bottles you see on the shelf will be sold in the next month. I decided to stick to collecting local bottles, Schuylkill county PA bottles, and Straight Sided Coca Cola bottles. That narrows it down a bit!

Coke bottles are cool, I have three Texas Longhorn bottles, 1923. Only four are known to exist that were from Sweetwater Tx...

That is one super display really impressive. I've never found an un broken old bottle but hope to. Value ? just can't put a value on some things and these are one of them.SE IA
