I collected coke bottles when I lived in France. Bottles are still widely
used there. I probably had about 600-700 bottles over the 4 year period I
lived there. Some museum needed a bunch of coke bottles, and I gave them my
collection. It is a play on words in French, they made a mast out of coke
bottles. It is still on display in Paris, with my name next to it :P.

collectors in
Cleburne that were friends of mine...................
