Nello corp. ? - 6/4/2005 3:22:14 PM    diggermeister Posts: 149 Joined: 5/3/2005 From: North Carolina, USA Status: offline This should be an interesting forum . I have a question for those of yu who may be into repro's; Is this bottle a reproduction? Is Nello a repro company? This bottle is listed on eBay as 1920-1940. Looks too modern to me.

Nice color and one of the fanciest Violin bottles I've seen . I would love to have it myself but, $30+ is too much for somthing that does not quite fit into my collection... < Message edited by diggermeister -- 6/4/2005 9:19:56 PM > _____________________________ If I Wasn't Crazy; I'd Go Insane, GARY http://groups.yahoo.com/group/federal_law_forbids_bottles (in reply to diggermeister) Post #: 4

I need to go see him anyways...been a while. Maybe I can add a little more info about this one afterwards. _____________________________ * Member: Bristol Historical Assoc....and...

Found a Nello Gori in Italy that made wine and exported it to the US in fancy figural bottles back in the 60's.... Here's an example of a fish bottle he used...don't know if his company made this or they were made elsewhere... http://cgi.tias.com/cgi-bin/sqlsearch.fcgi?store=%2Fstores%2Fjchac&resultPageTemplate=ResultPage.html&resultItemTemplate=ResultItem.txt&noResultPageTemplate=NoResultPage.html&case=no&primaryServer=www.tias.com&minPrice=0&max=15&matchAll=1&searchText=nello < Message edited by whiskeyman -- 6/7/2005 11:04:57 PM > _____________________________ * Member: Bristol Historical Assoc....and...
