Let's get this economy going again!!  Seriously, if you've never been to a show, you will be shocked by how reasonably priced many of the bottles are.. it's the best way to "bottle up" if you ask me.. I am going, and my wife, who just attended her first show last weekend, can't wait for this one!  _____________________________ I'm very busy these days, see you cats later.. long live ABN !!

If the tag says 20, offer 10 and see where it goes.. you won't be the only one haggling, and it's nothing personal..  _____________________________ I'm very busy these days, see you cats later.. long live ABN !!

RE: baltimore bottle show - 2/24/2010 3:03:13 PM    baltodigger Posts: 467 Joined: 5/31/2007 Status: offline Yes Laura, March 7th.....Same venue as previous years. PLEASE.......PLEASE.....PLEASE come up to me and introduce yourself. our show is shapeing up to be a real crowd pleaser. Ham man bring as much as you can afford to spend, there will be plenty of deals as mentioned. I think most forum members would agree that a really good way to accumilate a great collection is to focus on one or two specialty areas, such as med's....beers.....poisons etc. Become as proficient as possible in your area of collecting. For everyone attending our show I would like to thank you in advance. Without you guys it wouldnt be much of a show. Thanks again! _____________________________ President, Baltimore Antique Bottle club. (in reply to RedGinger) Post #: 11

Looking forward to seeing many of you all again and meeting some new faces. I remember last year it was 90. This year is a whole different story. We may still have snow on the ground this year. What a difference a year makes. _____________________________ Just when you think that you have life figured out, someone changes the rules. (in reply to baltodigger) Post #: 12
