Coast to coast actually and parts in between.ScottBSA said:Are most of them eastern in nature?
Yes, the 1909 Seattle worlds fair is where many of the RAINIER minis come from. I have seen one with a label indicating its origin. Have hopes of one day securing one for my collection. These also had beer in them and were secured with a cork and small wire so I am guessing maybe they were intended for consumption.cobaltbot said:... they sometimes gave them away at fairs?
I use these type pens (Elmers brand) both fine tip and medium. They are sold in hobby stores. I use toothpicks to clean around the edges of the lettering after the highlighting sets up a bit. If I need to remove it is use nail polish remover. If there is a lot of high point wear on the lettering I will dip the bottle or brush it with acrylic floor wax. That will fill in the roughness on worn lettering and make it easier to remove paint later if you choose to. I am lazy so I like easy.
