Old bottle using companies in Carmarthen
« on: Monday 21 October 13 07:44 BST (UK) »
A colleague of mine has done a lot of research into the old bottle using companies in Carmarthen (chemists, pop works, wine merchants etc)

There a 3 out of the 50 odd companies he has not managed to track and was wondering what would be a way forward. Can anyone help??

Has he ever seen British Bottle Review?

http://www.onlinebbr.com/mag/

He might get some leads there?
