Look how yellow it looks when held up to the light. I think I'll keep this one in my collection.
I also bought about 200 clear Texas drug store bottles from texasdigger and assorted hutchinsons and other bottles. Sales were pretty good too.

I did quite well...sold over 50% of the stock I brought and picked up some great pieces too! Was good to see everyone...sounds like next year's show (I think it will be July 18-19 next year) will be bigger as there is some discussion about combining it with the Houston Insulator Show (which is September 14th this year).

I am in the process of setting up a show in Palestine Texas for spring next year. Would either of you guys be willing to come set up? It is close to canton, and will be on the same weekend. I am doing my best to make it zero cost admission for the actual show day to attract as many as possible. Please let me know. If you know anybody else ask them. Once I have fifty confirmed I will book the event.

I would definitely like to do another Texas show. I could not go the first weekend in April though. Warrenton antique show is March 27-April 5. I cannot miss that show, it is a big money maker. That week the collectors will be in Warrenton, not Palestine. March or May would work for me though. I'm glad someone else has that idea. I was thinking about putting on a Central Texas show in Waco area but have not actually planned one yet.

It was nice seeing you guys at the show. I would definitely be interested in the another show in Palestine, so keep up us posted. That was a very nice writeup that Ferdinand posted on his Peachridge site. Cheers,

Palestine isn't too bad a drive...I'd definitely be interested.
