Read past issues of Antique Bottle & Glass Collector and Bottles and Extras
Bottles and Extras and Antique Bottle & Glass Collector can be viewed in ISSUU format for many past years. ISSUU is an online service that allows for realistic and customizable viewing of digitally uploaded material, such as portfolios, books, magazine issues, newspapers, and other print media. It integrates with social networking sites to promote uploaded material. While most of the documents are meant to be viewed online, some can be downloaded and saved as well. Uploaded print material is viewed through a web browser and is made to look like a printed publication with an animated page flip option.
Individual articles can also be read in PDF format.

Access an Indexed List of Bottles and Extras and Antique Bottle & Glass Collector articles
The FOHBC has undertaken the monumental task of indexing all past Bottles and Extras and Antique Bottle & Glass Collector articles with authors noted. The years 2004 to the present has been indexed and PDF files can be accessed and read. Bottles and Extras issues prior to 2008 will be available at a later date as we locate files and original artwork. Only select articles will be available in PDF format. Some articles may have to be scanned. You will see that 1998 was added in May 2014 using scans as digital files could not be found. Please contact the FOHBC if any links or files are not accessible or if you have any special needs for information.
