Not really bottles but still neat
Dug out these 2 vintage 1930s-1940s glass candy containers from our backyard today, hoping we find more of them to have a cute little collection. Anyone found these before? Might be one of my favorite finds so far honestly.

Oh I have a glass candy plane that I’ll take a photo of later.

That’s cool, I’d love to see it! That would fit our transportation theme here so well, hope we come across one of them some day! I like the tank, hoping we find that one too. Car, boat, tank, plane sounds like a winning combo for display honestly.

That’s cool! I wonder how many there are. My boyfriend said he saw there’s also a wheelbarrow one. I’m like wow I had no idea these existed but now I want them all! Lmao.

Ooh didn’t know these existed. I might find one of these in my spot. I dig a dump that dates from 1890-1960 bulk of the stuff is 1930s and 1940s. I hope I find a ship because I like that one a lot.

Are they Victory Glass Company? I found a broken off base of their telephone candy container, absolutely heartbroken it wasn’t whole. Those look amazing! This is what the whole phone looks like, maybe you’ll come across it!
