A Rob in Toronto Saying Hello

Hello from Toronto

My name is Rob Campbell and I'm an antiques dealer and collector and dumpdigger

I'm new to this forum but I've been drinking beer for a long time

I have a lot of real old beer bottles

This is a very old beer bottle that was found down in the Toronto harbour near Rees Wharf

Welcome to the asshattery! :asshat:

I don't have a collection anymore, but I dig beer bottles and those are definitely older than anything I had. Nice stuff.

The cream and tan Wm Robertson is actually a ginger beer bottle from 1890s - Thats what letters GB stand for in the center of the label

The Brain Bros is earlier approx 1880-1884
