KEY TO TERMS AND SYMBOLS

HEADING EXAMPLE:
BRAND Collector  Date Top Col or Size
(oz)
Height  V/M# DESCRIPTION 
BRAND- Brand Name found on Bottle
COLLECTOR- Collection Found in or First Reported By
DATE- Dates are usually determined by the base markings on the bottom of the bottle.
TOP- Bottle Top or Closure where: P= Pop Top,  S= Screw Top
COLOR- of BOTTLE GLASS
            A= Amber,  B= Blue,  C= Clear,  G= Green,  L= Light Green (Aqua)

SIZE- of BOTTLE- Volume in ounces.  If the bottle does not contain even ounces, a "+" follows the size.  A "?" means that the volume is undetermined from markings on the bottle.

HEIGHT-- Height of Bottle in Inches. 
V/M#- INTERACTIVE BOOK NUMBER- If a collector is to gain the most enjoyment from their hobby, they need to know:
(1) What items that are available to collect (2) The item's relative value
(3) Which items they have in their collection (4) An easy way to communicate with other collectors as to what they need and what they have for sale or trade.

This list is designed to accomplish all four needs.  The area of communications between collectors is covered by the use of Interactive Book Numbers (V/M#).  Only one V/M# is ever assigned to a cataloged item, and once assigned, it will never be changed. The number can be used to tag collection items and to make communication with other collectors easier.

All new items submitted by collectors to VIRTUAL MUSEUM will be assigned an V/M# and included in the next book update with the appropriate collector number.
