Steve Mueller

My name is Steve Mueller from Juneau Wisconsin. I have been collecting bottles from Dodge county cities for over 40 years. I have a large collection of Beers, Sodas, medicines, back bar bottles, and milk bottles. Along with the bottles I collect all early advertising from these towns to include cigar, store, breweries, dairies, soda works etc. Items include bottles, wooden cases, trays, signs, glasses, photos, ect. As time goes on I find myself looking for items from the late 1800's and early 1900's. Items included in my search are from Beaver Dam, Lomira, Theresa, Mayville, Horicon, Hustisford, Watertown, Waupun, Randolph Watertown, and all other small Dodge county towns. A few items I am still in search of include a Wm. Darge blob beer from Mayville - Neitzel hutchinson from Mayville - Snyder Ginsing seltzer bottle from Horicon - Peter Seifert blob beer bottle from Waupun - All Barwig bottles from the Barwig distillery Mayville.

I am a collector, dealer, author, digger, diver and local history buff who has collected Wisconsin bottles, stoneware and advertising for over 40 years. I started collecting in 1971 when I started scuba diving in local lakes and found bottles. I developed an interest in antiques in general over the years but my collecting focus has been early Wisconsin bottles and stoneware. Here are a few of my favorite categories:
- Stoneware bottles from Wisconsin.
- Bitters and whiskey bottles, especially amber strap-sided flasks.
- Blob sodas, mint examples with wires, pontil marked and colored. Also John Matthews.
- Beer bottles in mint condition with applied lips.
- Unusual colors and molds from Wisconsin Glass and Chase Valley Glass.
- Colored Hutchinson sodas from Wisconsin.
- Decorated and signed stoneware from Wisconsin potters including Maxfield, O.F. Baker, Charles Hermann, Th. Gunther, Gunther & Berns, Bachelder, W.D. Mosier, Portage City, Cunningham, Farwell, Bonesteel, Chamberlain or Wisconsin territory pieces.
- Decorated pottery from Whitewater Wisconsin.
- Backbar whiskey bottles, especially colored enamel or White enamel
- Advertising shot glasses from Wisconsin
If you have any of these items please Email Peter.
