Ink?

Really appreciate the help and links (thanks Sharon, I see a pic of it, with label, in one of the links) and the welcomes. I've been a member here for awhile but my posts are so few and far between I feel like a newbie each time. :-))

Ink?

You have a great memory, Jim. Yes I was into insulators but decided to cut down on some hobbies so sold my collection to Howard Banks last year. Met him in Merritt and got the job done. I had been going to Merritt for many years. Thanks for your input. Reid

factory lip?

Surely would have to be heated by someone who knew what he was doing. Could have been done at the factory but how would the get a stopper to fit? [;)]

factory lip?

Good to hear from you, Kyle, it's been awhile. My guess on the lip is that it was fixed, after the whiskey was gone, to serve another purpose. IMHO. Reid

factory lip?

This small flask, 6" x 3", has a modification to the lip. Is this a factory made alteration or something a resourceful person did out of necessity? Any ideas? Seen one like it? Appreciate any input. Thanks, Reid

Ink bottle ?

Thanks guys. Red, I think you may have it pegged because there are definitely swirl type lines around the piece. They can be seen (faintly) in the first pic. Here is a better pic of the base, very rough. Is there a book on ink wells and bottles? Reid

Ink bottle ?

Hi group, need more help. Picked this piece up today at antique sale. I can see no mold lines or markings. Plenty of little seed bubbles in almost clear glass. Seems to have a very light sage green tint to it. It measures 2 1/4" tall, 2 1/8" across the top and 1 7/8 across the base. The cone...

Yes, Canadian, sorry, just updated my profile. I will look at the links you provided, thanks. I was thinking this was a food type extract such as vanilla.

help please

Thank you "poison_us". I'ts KO-20 probably $10.00 as it is VNM, few nice bubbles and off center top. As in insulators, I'm learning the expensive way, paid $18.00. Where can I find this list? Reid
