Missing Cobalt Historic Flask, Emerald Fells Point

Hi all - just got some details on the description of the Fells Point emerald green bottle. One of my friends remembered that it had a small crack - internal in the neck - probably does not extend to the lip, plus it has a ding somewhere so it was not totally mint or perfect. Still after all this...

Plus imagine finding the bottles gone and having no pictures. It was about 3 months later that we found the pictures that I posted. We still have not found pictures of Rich Greens whole display that included the slip ware plates. So if we went to the police the next day after 6/3/06 - we had no...

Thank you for the replies - I made some corrections as to the date 6/3/06 and such - I sent one email to a key contact in the Richmond club so far. The manager of Williamsburg Antique Mall wants my info and will post it there for 400 dealers to see. I also see there are many more antique shops...
