It comes in a number of different colors, including purple, aqua, amethyst, white, carnival, and ruby. Value on the market is not high, probably around $5-$10 at most. There are lots of them on ebay and other sale sites. I am very fond of Wheaton reproductions and commemoratives myself (hoping the serious diggers here won't snicker at me) because they have such pure colors and nice proportions. Have a couple of cartons full packed away - no display room in my apt. They have all sorts of historical flask reproductions and commemorate everything from folks like Humphrey Bogart and political figures to space voyages. Back in the years they were producers of many, many general purpose bottles of all kinds and sizes. If you are ever in Millville, NJ, visit their Wheaton Villiage glass museum. They have an awesome display of many examples of early American glass and bottles. This website will tell you more about the museum, etc. http://www.co.cumberland.nj.us/tourism/wheaton_villiage/ (in reply to findingoodies) Post #: 3
