Festivity befitting the season.  More of my duplicates for the forum.

Three crown tops in great shape with minor bumps and bruises.  As Rhona can attest, these bottles clean up nicely.  No major issues that I can see.

They are a C. Moerlein, a BruckMann, and a Hudepohl (in a pear tree)

Last.  Lets end it in 10 days, say the January 3rd.  I'll pay USA postage.

Hmmm.  I've been told that "bruises" is not a great term to use.  These bottles have no chips, damage other than minor scratches. - Jim

I can't justify all the drive to thepost office, let alone the packing and shipping, for 5 bucks.

I'll bid $9.47 to up the ante to a respectable round figure.  And to show that my heart is in the right place I'll throw this rarely seen (well, I've never seen it before) beauty in the mix.  A crown top from the Crown Brew. Co. Cincinnati O.  I couldn't find any info on this one.

A great bottle with no issues that a little elbow grease wouldn't fix right up.  See for yourself. 

Now lets get those bids flying in.

Great.  Thanks ww.

If anyone knows anything about this last bottle, I am curious.  As best I can tell, the Crown Brewing Co. was an Indiana based company that moved to Cinci for a short period.  Sound right?

Last chance.  Auction for four (4) bottles ends tommorow at midnight.

Support the forum with a really high bid, something in the 4 - 5 figure range, and I might even clean one of them.

They are yours, ww.

You might want to check on the Crown one.  That one may be worth something.  I can't find it on Taverntrove, ebay, or anywhere.  The others are common but well worth the 5 bucks each - I think.  Of course, I know nothing about bottles. 

Pay the man and forward me the address you want them sent to and they will be in your possession in no time.

Admin et al,

Am I to assume no one wanted or paid for these, since I have receive no communication.  These bottles are shattered (emotionally, not physically).

I'll make a donation to the forum for the shipping costs and I may try these again at a later date, since the auction seems a bust (again figuratively). - Jim

No.  The Renner company was in Cinci, and Old Crown out of Indiana bought their old stock, but that was in 1962.

WW,

It's up to you.  I donated to the forum to make up for it.  I figure I will relist (with a couple of items to sweeten the pot a bit) in the near future.  I've got an odd blob that just might make it a good auction.

Jim
