If it's a nice dark green or teal it may go for that but most are still just aqua and worth about $20±. A different shade of aqua doesn't really count. I've seen labelled not get $50. There were nice light teals that still aren't worth what Kovels report and I don't think there is anything resembling an emerald or forrest green that would justify over $300 bucks. To answer the first part though, no repros I've heard of. < Message edited by cowseatmaize -- 5/22/2006 9:15:14 AM > _____________________________ My 10¢ worth (inflation) Eric If you love what your doing it might be illegal, so watch your back.

They kinda shoot high. _____________________________ Warren Diggin down in Dixie, USA Work is for people who don't dig bottles President, Panhandle Cruisers http://www.panhandlecruisers.org/ (in reply to cowseatmaize) Post #: 3

Seams give them away: early Owens machine seams..."extra seam" around the neck below the mouth...and side and top of mouth seams don't line up...are offset 90 degrees... _____________________________ * Member: Bristol Historical Assoc...and, Friends of Steeles Creek Nature Center & Park President: Bristol Tenn-Va Bottle Club Author of: Spirits & Medicinal Bottles of Bristol,TN-VA.
