Such a great deal! - 8/25/2011 3:54:58 PM    maine_digger92   Posts: 33 Joined: 4/23/2011 Status: offline So I stopped by a local antique shop today to look at some bottles. Bought a couple and the owner of the shop told me that a lady down the street was getting rid of a bunch of old bottles because she was moving out of her house. I called the lady up and asked about her bottles, and she invited me to stop by. I did just that, and in the entryway of her house were hundreds of amazing bottles, all around 1890s. So I bought 40 bucks worth (like 50 bottles) for 40 bucks. Amongst these bottles were quite a few gems, see the pics below. Attachment (1) Post #: 1

I hadn't noticed that bit of dribble on the shoulder of the olive case gin before you pointed it out. It's rather curious, and I'm not sure what to make of it. Anyways, figured I would post pics of that case gin along with the other one, an amber (see below pictures) Attachment (1) (in reply to RED Matthews) Post #: 14
