Status: offline 		For some, Christmas came early...  For us, it was yesterday.  The wife is a little girl when it comes to this day.  The presents all sitting pretty on the floor taunt her and she just cant stand the wait.  We have no kids, so it really doesn't matter when we open them...at least she waited till the day before. 

So lets see what you all got.  I will take some pix here shortly and get them up.  But just in case someone has theirs already poised, place them here!

First up, from Santa

A KJ-1.  It's the only American jug poison.  When Lysol made it's way to our shores from England, they set up shop in NY.  There are very few of these bottles known and I scored it for cheap on the bay.  How is beyond me, but I have never seen another outside of the book.




Next up, my lovely wife got me a complete set of KO-3s.  Been after the bottles for quite some time, and keep missing out whenever one would come up on ebay.  These come in 1 oz, 1/2 oz and 1/4 oz.  The 1/4 oz is very hard to find as very few are known to exist.



Next, I got my wife 2 antique tea sets she wanted (she loves antique tea sets)

Set 1 is from Pembroke Wedwood Barlaston (I think I copied it down right) Made in England.



Set 2 is Bone China from Hammersley & Co.  Also made in England





And that's it in this dept.  There are other tings we got each other, but nothing really applicable here in the blue pages.
I hope to see what else everyone got this day.

Merry Christmas!

Status: offline 		Great bottles (flask is real nice too) and china.... The only bottle type gift (other than secret santa) that I recieved was this sweet little umbrella ink that Penn Digger gifted to me....The only other one I currently have is the one from my first bottle show ( Lowell, Mass) that has the half leaf repair type mark in it... Which is also way cool in it's own way,... Thank you very much Tom! Great example.

I tried to treat myself to a Xmas gift by bidding on the Union Glass squat john (Oldihtractor) had listed on eBay, but I wasn't high bidder, oh well.

Happy Holidays all.

My little flat back poison....

Joe asked me, "Isn't that right near "Blue Ball"?  I said, "How would I know?"  LOL  There are some more weird PA names, I just can't think of them.

Really nice gifts, guys.  I was following that Pittsburgh eagle flask, as we have the same one.  Flasks aren't my main thing, but that the Pittsburgh one is very nice.  I'll see if Joe can post a pic of ours.  Great poisons too!
