hey, whiskeyman9! It can be you and me until others join in! I know they are out there... ;)

Do you happen to have any pics of your collection you would want to share? I'd love to see some. I don't know anything about bottle collecting... what's your favorite item?

Hi Whiskeyman and Daphne - glad to see this thread. I'm not really a collector - yet - but I'm interested. I just picked up a Jim Bean bottle made for the 1974 National Convention of Bowling Proprietors Association of American in Lake Tahoe. Is that considered an advertising collectible? It was just too funky to pass up! I figure someone named Whiskeyman has to be the person to ask...

Welcome, erinelise2! Hey, sounds like neat item! I grew up a stone's throw from Tahoe (in Reno.) :) I'm sure whiskeyman will know more on values, but I wanted to welcome you.

DAPHNE....for Bottle info and pics of some of my favorite bottles,check out my ME page.There are also two links there...one to my bottle club and one to assorted sites on antique bottles and the hobby.

National Jim Beam Bottle & Spec.Club...5005 Cochran Ave....Oakland,CA.94618....there are also a few States with Jim Beam Clubs,you can get that info from the National Org...welcome to the Hobby of Bottle Collecting !!!

GOOD MORNING !!



Just wanted to stop by and offer anything I can for this board. I've been a big fan of advertising collectibles for years. I don't have much in the way of books for specific information but maybe able to offer some experience in selling them and what to look for.


Presently I'm not selling. (Trying to organize the things I've been lax on for the past 5 years) but plan on starting up in September.


Anyway I'll keep an eye on this board......Earl
