Title: Collection Pictures

Here's a link to some pictures from the BevNet forum.  I thought that the guy was just in to collecting bottles, but he has a pretty good collection of machines too.  He has been known to rent a U-Haul to pick up bottles a few states away.  He also had an article in Soda Pop Dreams a year ago about one of his trips.
Enjoy!

Wow... pretty neat... machines from all eras and quite a few bottles.
There's a guy use to set up here at Missouri Swap meets that drove
a big box truck and collected/bought/sold bottles and crates....
Wonder if it is the same guy.
When I went to that 7up plant sale he was there and told me of a guy
that had boxes of NOS 7up bottle with the bubble girl on them... gave
him my number but never heard from him... Would love to have a case of those. (Bet Brian would too.. A couple of cases of those bottles would look good next to his embossed 7up 33.)

I just went back and read the comments... someone ticked him off!
So he took them off.... A lot of that goes on on that oldgas.com too.
too many serious/jealous guys.... why can't they just be happy for each others finds and collection....
We have it good here! :happydrinkers:
