Wow, incredible. What a difference that lip finish makes on those two sparklers! Thanks so much again, for taking the time to share your collection with us.

Never seen that form in a pint before. VERY nice!

Thought I would post a couple more of my more scarce ones. They are both aqua but what makes them more rare is their lip. Very rarely do you see an aqua quart or pint with a blob top. Most always they have a flange type collar. Unfortunately I didn't dig either one of these. Had to drop some serious coin.View attachment 187695

Thanks guys! I love these Hosp. bottles. Glad ya'll like them too. Jim they are a scarce bird. Our old friend RICKJJ59W had one years ago and I kept hounding him about it. Said it was the only Hosp. Dept. bottle that he ever dug as I recall. He use to show it to me from time to time just to taunt me! But he never would sell it to me. lol! He liked that bottle a lot, but not quite as much as that Puce Eagle he dug! ;) Smoke

Hi Guys, just crossed another Hosp. Dept. bottle off my list. 6 1/2" Cobalt pint. Only got a few more on my bucket list before I croak and pass the glass to the next collector!

Thanks Sandchip! I sure wish I was able to still get out and dig. I miss that. I really do.
