Steve, That is a neat coverage and tribute to a mans creation. I hope you are coming up here this summer - bring that fisherman with you and we can set on the dock and do it.
And I really mean it.
I look forward to your visit and I am sure we will enjoy your family.

I forgot to mention this earlier in the post.All the fins on the fish were added after the vessel was blown.The lips show no area of after attachment anomolies.
When guilding and rigarees and lily pads were added to vases and bottles you can clearly see the lines of demarkation where they attach to the vessel.The mouth on this bottle has no such marks rather it looks as though the lips were pulled up from the vessel on each side of the pontil while the glass was still plyable.Maybe Red can offer his opoinon on this matter.
