Thanks MINNESOTA DIGGER I try to get an ideal of a bottles price before I sell it. Its a good think to know, a friend of mine Robert Cutchins, bought a bottle at an antique store here in Texas for $29.00 and found out it was a rare bottle and ended up selling it for $7,000.00 ...
Here is a whiskey bottle I found at an estate sale today. The bottle reads LAMBE & DEMARKE FINE WHISKEY ARKANSAS CITY, ARK. It is a blown and mold that is 6 5/8'' tall. The design on the bottom is debossed in the bottle. I have not been able to find any information on this bottle. If anybody has...

Hi Jay, I was hoping you would know something about the jug. I have tried asking around in Gonzales trying to find a dump location and everybody is pretty tight lipped. I haven't given up trying to find a dump there with the possibility of finding some pontil bottles, since the town has been...
Here is a jug I bought at a car show in Luling last week. It was holding up a sign in front of a '34 Ford. I haven't been able to find out very much about it, except someone said it was suppose to be an extremely scarce jug. As you see the name on it is not very clear, but I think is says LOUIS...
