These bottles do not show up often, but previous sales have been $20 and up.

We visited a really great looking antique mall last week enroute to the Advertising Show in Harrisburg. The Big Valley Antique Center is located just east of State College, PA. What makes it stand out is it's beautiful wood interior and extremely neat booths. It's a big space with lots of vendors and well worth the stop if you're in the area.

It looks like I might just have another fun hat to wear during upcoming shows...a vintage Utica Club Cream Ale advertising hat in a perfect fit!

A few pictures from the Advertising Show in Harrisburg, PA this weekend. Not a large amount of dealers for this new show but it has good potential. We should be back next year
