Great episode of Mantlepiece Theater, sir! Could I make a special request for a close up photo, in natural light if possible, of the sweet suite of flasks in this picture?

You had some great glass in those totes. Must be nice to be able to relate to it again.

  Jim you would be right about the second floor window ,The bottom half of the window still opens .I think its always been a combanation window door even when there was a  porch on the front of the house .
