Earliest repros? - 10/24/2005 7:00:50 PM    deepwoods   Posts: 334 Joined: 2/9/2004 Status: offline I have a small (6"),bright teal pickle or food bottle (ovoid cathedral panals with flowers at the shoulders), that I dug out of a dump that had nothing newer than late-20s. An old-time-collector friend took a look at it and said it was a repro. Is that possible? When were the earliest repros made- and at that time did they repro pickles and foods? Thanks. _____________________________ J.D Post #: 1

Have not heard about any repo pickles/foods from that era.... A teal cathedral pickle would be quite appealing and valuable to lots of collectors... I'll do some further looking around and see if I can find any additional info. Could you post a pic ? And even if it was a repo...being that old it would certainly have some value and interest. _____________________________ * Member: Bristol Historical Assoc...and, Friends of Steeles Creek Nature Center & Park President: Bristol Tenn-Va Bottle Club Author of: Spirits & Medicinal Bottles of Bristol,TN-VA.
