Theres one still in Avondale on St Johns Ave...Think its a Florist Shop now,but definitely was the Skinner's Dairy shape like the rest :)

I remember that, during the 1990s, Skinner Dairy experimented with selling their milk in glass bottles.  I dropped by their Ortega location to capitalize on their nostalgia.  It's too bad that it didn't take off.  Native Sun, however, sells organic milk in glass bottles today...  Pretty cool, eh?

I was recently on Anastasia Island across the Bridge of Lions from St. Augustine and saw #18 still standing.  It may be boarded up.  It's next to Osteen's Restaurant.
Hey!  Whatever happened to just plain ol' COMMON SENSE!!

O'Steens owns that one and they use it for the deep freeze and storage. They keep it painted and looking good...I do a lot of wandering around while I wait for my shrimp to-go...
