Repairing rare bottles - 7/31/2007 1:45:15 PM

I know where 2 rare local bottles are but both have the crowns broken, is it worth it to have then replaced? I can buy the 2 for about 5 or 6 dollars because of the breaks.

How hard it it to find someone that can do the work, and how much is the cost to replace the crowns?

Thanks.

For that price, if they are rare, I would grab them. Check with forum member Bottle Tumbler. He does nice work, and I'm sure he could replace a crown and make it a decent-looking bottle for display. He can tell you more about cost, etc. ~Jim
