Sounds neat. My wife wasn't too happy when I added a few more shelves to my bottle collection - which is in the kitchen. Here are some of the bottles:

Wow, Brent. That's a ton of bottles! Do you collect anything in particular?

Most of the filled bottles are Coke. So yes on that part. I pick up commemorative bottles when I see them. The empty ones are from all over the US (a couple are from Mexico and Canada). So no on that end. A few came from local bottlers.

Those shelves have a lip on the front, so they can't scoot forward. I have the screws going in to the studs, so that shelf does not vibrate or move that much.

Here in California, peoples first concern is earthquakes. This room belongs to one of my customers, he bought the C-72 from me, and built the room around it and his bottles

Wow!!! I thought my collection was cool. I found a cool antique mall outside of Louisville ky that had a bunch of neet bottles that were really cheep so everytime I pass by I stop and buy a few. I don't really care if they are worth anything I just buy the ones I like. And me being rather young I don't remember when soda was available everywhere in bottles so they are all neet to me. Josh

Wow! and I thought I had some bottles, You guy's blow me away. Like Josh there is antique mall that I drive by every day to the office and I will stop by once a week to look for bottle's that I don't have or bottle's that are better that what I have now.

Seriously...that guy has the market cornered on FULL collectable bottles!
I do the same thing Josh does, I have a few antique malls around where I live and smaller antique stores so on the way home from work or on weekends that I'm free, I'll go check them out just to see if anything cool rolled in. I don't collect anything in particular. Like Josh, if it looks cool and it won't break the bank, I'll grab it!
