this weekends buys - 5/26/2008 3:33:18 PM    Tony14 Posts: 2418 Joined: 2/15/2005 From: Fond du Lac, Wisconsin Status: offline Hey you guys got to a couple of antique shops while camping this weekend and came home with two. But i did see some amazing glass. Some guy had a collection of hutches, historical flasks, and colored fruit jars (along with a few bitters) for sale. anyways here are the two i picked up. Got them both for $30. An engel hutch with the tombstone slug and a quart sander bros blob beer. the hutch has a small crack in the blob but it was cheap and i dont have one, and the beer is mint Attachment (1) < Message edited by Tony14 -- 5/26/2008 3:35:07 PM > _____________________________ Looking for any Fond du Lac bottle.
