Here's a story for your bottle collection. My grandfather said his brother went to Oklahoma in early 1900s. Theier name was "Hostettler". The indians in Oklahoma told him they knw of him. He asked how and they replied"We drink of you". Seems the Indians of that day were buying "Hostetter's Bitters" to drink because of alcohol content - I guess they were prohibited to buy commercial whiskey. I have one put away somewhere and years later I bought my mother one that still had the oiriginal paper label since this was her maiden name.

That Coca Cola in your last pic is really nice. I startd digging in 1972. Straight sided Cokes were my first dig. I sold all mine about 10 years ago.
