CHARLIE,
You are so right! I wish I had someplace to put all my Clevs, someday when I'm in my own place again!!  And this forum is just terrific. You'll get no argument from me!

That's a nice bottle even with the damage. The repro becomes fairly obvious when you put that one next to it.

Hey guys sorry for the lack of posts the past couple of months I have Been extremely busy with work and coaching commitments on my sons Ice hockey team.The seller of this bottle is an honest person who sells lots of bottles on ebay some of you may already know this.He has been fooled by a great looking bottle just like most of us could.This particular bottle is a Clevenger version. Here is a link to a bottle that I bid 800 dollars on and lost.
http://cgi.liveauctions.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=017&sspagename=STRK%3AMEDW%3AIT&viewitem=&item=270210423026&rd=1
My ebay user name is steveadatacom I was willing to pay1500 but the bid button on ebay live of the auction that day did not work for me and only my pre bid worked which was 800.00 the bottle sold for 1100.00 A java script error cost me from winning the bid.This goes for any of you please check with ebay on how they could send you a test bid if you plan to bid live in a realtime auction.I will be posting some additional knowledge regaurding the booz bottles.I now own three originals along with Clevengers to match  to do side by side comparisons with, Thanks Steve Atkinson

Clevenger E.G.Booze on E- bay is up to 305.00  . What will the people do when they find out it is a reproduction ?

they probably wont find out for years, considering they bought the hype in the auction...

a dead give away on these is how the corners were cut, the clevenger always has a sharper cut with more of the roof taking out then the original...

Clevenger Booz  went for $560.00 Somebody probably thought they got a good deal.
