Geo Williams and Frank Jackson - 1/12/2012 3:21:11 AM    Young One   Posts: 12 Joined: 1/7/2012 From: Brisbane, Australia Status: offline Hi I've got about 8 Green Geo Williams Saint Oswald beer (not sure) bottles. They are around 9 1/2" tall and have a funny man on them holding a knife and a plant. I also have a FRANK JACKSON CASTLE HOTEL OSWESTRY green beer (not sure) bottle. It stands at about 10" tall. Can someone tell me who, what, where, when, why. Thanxs Y.O. (sorry could not upload photo as it was to big) Post #: 1

You need to reduce the size of your photos. There's some Directions Here, that may be of help. Meanwhile, The Frank Jackson is British. Does yours look like This One? Oswestry is in Shropshire near the border with Wales. They've, apparently, got this lovely castle ruin, for which the hotel was named. The George Williams is British as well. Is yours a Hamilton? The "funny man," I believe is St. Oswald, see HERE. I'd really like to see some good photos of your bottles. Please figure out the photo posting process. From. (in reply to Young One) Post #: 2

Be sure to check the "Embed" button, so the photo shows up on the page. I'm looking forward to seeing more. Please do some nice close up portraits of good King Oswald. From.

RE: Geo Williams and Frank Jackson - 1/13/2012 9:45:20 PM    Young One   Posts: 12 Joined: 1/7/2012 From: Brisbane, Australia Status: offline I got it on my first ebay auction for 21 bottles for $21. basically all the bottles were english. I used to look around on ebay for bottles but I've stopped that a bit because I'm trying out digging. Being in Australia I think it's harder to come across bottle dumps. Y.O. P.S. The man I bought them off was a school teacher in England in the 70's and 80's. < Message edited by Young One -- 1/13/2012 9:46:36 PM > (in reply to carobran) Post #: 11
