Old topic with mysterious bottle/Resolution? - 12/16/2009 7:43:51 AM    bearswede Posts: 3191 Joined: 9/28/2004 From: western mass Status: offline Does anyone remember this bottle...? I'm including a link which refers to it, but the original thread links embedded in it are no longer available (that's too bad,too...)... Anyway, I don't remember all the details myself... but someone claimed to have  unearthed a genuine Lancaster Bitters... There was a flurry of activity... Supposedly, there was talk of offers of big-time $$$... We all kept after the guy to give us more photos, and he promised to... But, after awhile, we got zippo from him... http://www.antique-bottles.net/forum/m-63494/mpage-1/key-lancaster/tm.htm#63621 Ron Attachment (1) _____________________________ "I LOVE Wolfies!!!!!!!!!!!!"

RE: Old topic with mysterious bottle/Resolution? - 12/18/2009 11:23:58 AM    bearswede Posts: 3191 Joined: 9/28/2004 From: western mass Status: offline I guess nobody remembers this or nobody cares... I just thought it was interesting... Here's this bottle supposedly unearthed that looks crude and old... But wait... Everyone thought this was an imaginary bottle, not even a repro... And there were serious discussions and big buck interest in it if it proved to be genuine... But the trail ran cold... Ah, well... This trail is running cold as well...

It was in Ohio... Thanks for the memory jog!!! I don't remember his handle, and since we're locked out from the original thread, we can't get it that way... I was just so startled to see that bottle in the first place... I need closure here!!! Where's LobesPierre? He remembers everything... Ron _____________________________ "I LOVE Wolfies!!!!!!!!!!!!"
