Major UK Pot Lid Collection Stolen - 3/14/2007 6:15:54 PM    Gidday Posts: 125 Joined: 7/3/2004 From: Nassau, Bahamas Status: offline Saw some correspondence earlier today advising that Mr. John Waller had his significant lid collection stolen in its entirety. Apparently he was attending a local bottle club meeting last night in Kent when he was burgled. Hopefully a list of these items and images will follow. He specialized in multicolored advertising pieces. Post #: 1

Someone close that was also a collector. But on another note, Gidday, i see you live in the Bahamas. Any local Codds or marble bottles there?? If so do you have any pictures!!? thanks (in reply to poisons4me) Post #: 10
