Here are a few bottles i'm trying to aquire. They come with hefty pricetags, but if you know of anyone who possibly could have any of these examples for sale, please let me know.

I've directed my collection towards early pontiled soda & mineral waters first, so I figured i'd show some pics of what i'm looking for.


Early long neck flat tapered top W.H. Buck from Norfolk, Va.
[image]

Early long neck tapered top Heiss


Early long neck flat tapered to Roussel's


Early flat tapered top E. McIntire


Small letter arched C. Clark from Charleston SC


Also some other odd colored Clarks from Charleston, as well as other examples of the early tapered top long neck sodas and mineral waters.

All the best,
~Tim

Well the market dictates it. High demand and not enough supply, works that way with so many things unfortunately. We're all looking for what we collect

All the best,
~Tim

I guess Sandy agreed to the high bid even though the reserve wasn't met, congrats JB that's a nice bottle.....Jim

Sorry she had to sell off such a great collection but she seems ok with it....

Unfortunately not the high bid, I had to pay her asking price but I’m ok with that as well as she is a very nice lady for working with me. She contacted me after the action ended then I called her back and made arrangement to purchase the bottle off line. They are selling everything including the house so they can move to Florida as they can’t take the cold anymore.

I'm still wishing I would have went higher on the McManus now, but i've got a bottle i'm working on at the moment.

The Cole & Dean she had was really sharp KB.

Me too Tim... I would have taken that over the C&D but was too late and didnt realize the potential of being a local to me.  :(   I'm thinking about knocking on the doors of all the old houses in the neighborhood it came from to try my luck at permissions or if there is a chance of others being out there... doubtful though.

It just goes to show you never know what's going to show up at any given time. You're in a great area to find a killer piece like that. Keep lookin!
