Missisquoi A Springs - 2/10/2012 3:27:47 PM

Status: offline 		Dug this recently and thought I'd share. Been digging a lot of holes lately without much glass, so I was excited to get a good bottle for a change. V-17-A in Don Tucker's classification, has the Squaw and papoose on the reverse.

Searched ebay and saw 3 that sold recently for $100-150 each, but they were the plain reverse bottles. Anyone have an idea of value on this one?

This should include the finish details, the bottom details and in the case of the Indian Lady we will need to see a clear picture of the stance and the lower ground area. I have bid on these before but couldn't without more detail. I assume your interested in Value more than the scarcity aspect. Thanks RED Matthews

Tucker lists them in olive-green, yellow olive, black, and medium green. I don't think there's enough yellow in mine to be olive green, but I can see the argument for that color. I think it's green.

Everything I have is for sale for the right offer, except wife and children and guns,
well perhaps the children (39 and 29 years old)
and perhaps if the offer is right the wife,
no not the wife and never the guns!!!!
