RE: my violin bottle collection - 6/7/2009 12:03:26 PM    botlenut Posts: 466 Joined: 9/6/2007 From: Hadley, New York Status: offline           hi everyone,    When I saw this thread a few weeks back, I wanted to post a couple pics. But our Violins, were all over the walls on hangers. I was committed to doing a display at The Saratoga Bottle Show, and was working on a backlit display case. Well I finished the case, and did my Display at The Show yesterday. Please forgive my Photography skills, but you get the idea. This is only some of them, as I couldnt fit all of them in the case. I had some other Go Withs on another table but didnt get a pic of that. This is my wife's favorite catigory of the 4 types of bottles we collect, But I take credit for scoring every one at bottle Shows, Flea Markets, and Shops. I was also able to add two steller Pontiled Colognes to our Collection. Hope you enjoy the pictures.

I'm sizing them down inside a 100 kb, but their still huge. Lets see if this works. This one is a very rare, Vaseline Glass. It glows like Kriptonite with a black light.
