    Need help with Brandy bottle

    Hi - I have a Brandy bottle that is empty but still corked and the seal hasn't been broken. I can find no record online anywhere as to age etc. Does anyone recognize it ? Tnks

    Thanks MichaelFla - so do you think the barrel shaped ones are the likeliest to sell on Ebay or the amber one.Dave

    [attachment=4 bottles for appraisal_opt (1).jpg] Here's a couple more I'm not finding much info on..... The amber bottle ( 6 1/2" tall ) is fluted 1/2 way around and plain the other half. The 6 1/2" green one beside it has E B &C Co Ltd on the bottom, the 2 barrel bottles ( mustard ?) are 5"...

    I apologize Eric - you're right !! I didn't realize it was Amazon Canada, so when I clicked on the shipping policy it said $14.98 international, which I took to mean outside the USA.That's probably the way to go then - I've never dealt through Amazon before, so will have to set up an...

    Looks like the Putnam books are $13.00 shipping to Canada. There is a 1997 BOTTLES IDENTIFICATION AND PRICE GUIDE for $10.00 and $11.00 for shipping, works out about the same but has over double the pages....( for what that's worth ! ).The books from Amazon are $15.00 shipping to Canada. I'll...

    So Jack - is that the book by H.E. Putnam you're talking about ?

    Well - far as boring me......No ; I don't know if I'll ever get into 'collecting' bottles or not - but it is very interesting learning about them none the less. Guess ideally - for now at least - if I could get to a place where I could look things up on my own without having to rely 100% on...

    My philosophy is that once you get to know everything, then you have to forget some things to make room for new. Make sense ???

    Ever since I owned a computer ( 15 years now ) anything I needed a log-in to I wrote down in a little book. If I ever lost that book I'd have to start all over again !! ( dreaded thought ). Also, usually there is a prompt to ask you if you forgot your user name or password, and the website will...

    Thanks Eric - I'm more along the lines right now of the 'non-collector' attitude ; that being if it looks old and "purdee" then it must be valuable !! I look at the sea of bottles (mixed in with some insulators ) that I was given to sell and I think "Where do I start " ? The person that had...

    Well thanks Jim - I really appreciate you taking the time to pass all that on - I'll just keep going with the websites I have and like you say, someday I'll get to recognize the shapes a little better to at least have a starting point !One of these times when we go down to Jalapenos in Sandpoint...

    Hello everyone,I have 2 more bottles I'm wondering about. Also, can you recommend a good website where I ( not knowing much about bottles ) could go and scroll through photo's to try find what I'm looking for. Tall order; I know ; but would possibly save bothering everyone with mundane posts !Tnks
