Anyone know about this bottle? - 5/29/2008 2:10:17 PM    Poeticallyinsane   Posts: 241 Joined: 2/4/2008 From: Southern Colorado Status: offline Bought another from a thrift store. Not sure if its old or if its anything worth keeping but it was only 50 cents and I thought the shape was neat. If anyone has any information on this then please tell me.

Will make a nice vase. _____________________________ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BibwRKxLEdg I been dreamin, floatin down the stream, losing touch with all that's real (in reply to Poeticallyinsane) Post #: 4

I looked up MacBick and found that it has to do with a hospital supply place. It's still pretty cool I guess. Thanks to you both for the information. _____________________________ Krystal (in reply to lobeycat) Post #: 5

So...my next question is...is it worth anything at all? I'm not really in this hobby for the value but I'm curious. _____________________________ Krystal (in reply to GuntherHess) Post #: 7
