The hundreds of old and antique bottles listed below constitute the first, very small part of an enormous collection assembled over almost 41 years. These bottles and jars have been obtained by diving, digging, selectively swapping and purchasing - both in Australia and overseas, by a dedicated (many would say fanatically keen) Australian collector. Although many rare and desirable bottles and jars will be offered for sale, over time, on this site, rarity terms have largely been avoided - the prices quoted (in Australian $'s) generally indicate rarity and desirability.
Most bottles and jars listed are "one only", but duplicates in similar condition exist for a small number - when such a bottle or jar is sold, the item may not display a "SOLD" sign. Items can be reserved for a period of time, by arrangement, to enable payment - such items will display a "Reserved" sign . Every endeavour has been made to carefully describe each bottle and jar so that the purchaser has a very clear and accurate idea of condition. If unsure, you can request a digital picture of the item. The intention is that you be spared unpleasant surprises. In the unlikely event that the condition of a bottle or jar has not been accurately described, a purchaser may return the item in "as sent" condition, properly packed, for refund of item cost.
You are welcome to send me your "Wants" list, in case I can help you. Families whose forebears used branded bottles, are also welcome to check with me, in case I am able to help locate bottles for you.
Experience at packaging for both Australian and overseas delivery ensures that you can order in full confidence that the item/s will be adequately and securely, yet economically packed. Postage is expensive so this will ensure that you are only paying the minimum amount necessary for safe delivery to you.
Happy collecting,
Wayne Harris.
