BOOZ on ebay:This is just plain wrong - 8/9/2007 11:21:56 PM    sewellbottleman Posts: 413 Joined: 1/29/2007 From: Mantua Township/Sewell section Status: offline The following link to ebay shows what appears to be an original booz bottle. http://cgi.ebay.com/Original-Antique-E-G-Boozs-Old-Cabin-Whiskey-Bottle_W0QQitemZ140146098265QQihZ004QQcategoryZ1351QQrdZ1QQssPageNameZWD1VQQcmdZViewItem It is nicely described and quite honestly looks like an original.Whether the seller honestly doesnt know if his bottle is original or not is not the point im about to make.He is asking 1500.00 for it stating it is original.I beleive it is our duty in the bottle community to point out to the unsuspecting public the knowledge we posses of this very famous bottle.THIS BOTTLE IS NOT AN ORIGINAL.First Glass auctions selling on line never start original BOOZ bottles this high this is rediculous. Second there is no period after the word WHISKEY,and the neck of the bottle runs into the first O on E.C. BOOZ'S on the roof.Thirdly:The first O in the word BOOZ on the roof should be directly over top of the letter C in the words OLD CABIN and the C in the word Cabin should be over top of the letter S in the in the word WHISKEY on the also on the roof.This bottles allignment of these letters clearly shows it to be a Clevenger Reproduction.I have to admit this bottle looks darn original to a novice. Please do not bid on this bottle it is not worth more than 150.00 to 200.00 as a nice Clevenger reproduction.I have stated numerous times in this forum in regaurds to original BOOZ bottles and the tell tale signs to look for.   Post #: 1
