If you designed a repro... - 8/12/2005 2:42:27 AM    KentOhio   Posts: 730 Joined: 9/13/2004 Status: offline Hey, I'm just wondering, if you could commission either a repro or a fantasy bottle, what would you have it be? This goes for flasks, medicines, bitters, etc. I think I might actually make something some day and need some ideas. My ideas so far: 1. Repro of Harrison campaign flask 2. Dr. Pierce's Least Favorite Prescription (I think I read that here somewhere.) 3. Nasty Ass Bitters Post #: 1

I am not going to go through with it or anything because I know little about glass blowing but I have come up with some good names that people would go crazy over. All would of course have to be cobalt blue and have an open pontil!

Scroll flasks, Jenny Linds, CORRECT peppersauce, fluted Ketchup bottles... etc. I almost bought the old Clevenger Brother Scroll flask mold a few months back off of Ebay, to have some blown on commission for me to sell to reenactors. < Message edited by Rick -- 9/14/2005 10:30:13 PM > (in reply to KentOhio) Post #: 5
