is this avon bottle collectible?  what might it be worth? it is marked AVON 8 on the bottom and the stopper looks like a strawberry.

All the avon I have come across so far has been next to worthless.

however, I know there are peices out there with real value.. I would like to know what they are!

Started out as the California Perfume Company and in 1939 changed to Avon. Anything from the California Perfume would be collectible and Avon pre 1960 is still sought after. For the most part (but not all, their are exceptions) after about 1960 Avon flooded us with bottles and most will never be worth much.
