The Museum of Beverage Containers can trace its roots to the mid 1970's when teenager Tom Bates, son of Paul Bates, picked up a couple of rusty old beer cans on his way home from the school bus stop. See MUSEUM... in the BEGINNING.

In 2002, the collection from the Museum of Beverage Containers was split, now exists in two locations, and is open for tour by appointment only. A virtual TOUR of the MUSEUM will provide a glimpse of the site before the collection was split.  The breweriana section of the museum is located in Millersville, Tennessee.  A personal tour of the Millersville section of the museum can be arranged by activating this E-Mail.

The soda collection from the museum was relocated on the FARM at NOSTALGIAVILLE, in Springfield, Tennessee.  A virtual tour begins at the VILLAGE.  A personal tour can be arranged by A VISIT to the FARM.

If you are a collector of Soda or Beer memorabilia, the COLLECTOR INFORMATION section will overwhelm you with useful information to add to your collecting knowledge and pleasure
