Great fnd Louis!!! I'd be like a kid on a candy shop if I ran into a deal like that.....My wife wouldn't mind a bit - probably insist that I get them actually, but it would cost me a weekend of quilt shops if I did!!!! It's a tradeoff for us.....

Honestly Ron, my Misses doesn't really care one way or another. Besides I have bought her Hull Pottery which she has liked collecting for years, so she can't say too much to me. I would guess she has around 125 pieces of the matte vases and so forth sitting around.

I know a little about quilts too, that can be an expensive venture. I have seen a lot of quilts here in my area at auctions, that bring some really nice prices at times. Of course , it depends on the pattern as well as the stitching per inch and so on.

I have always been at a loss as to never running into old bottles in auctions in my area, they have always been far and in between in my area for some reason. I see on the forum a lot of time where people say they find all these nice bottles in yard and estate sales in their areas, makes me crazy ! I am glad for them though, its nice to hear of their adventures as for finding some nice glass here and there. I figure some time or another my ship might come in, there is a lot of history dating way back in the area I live in, good bottles have to be here.

The Lightning Blood Elixer is my favorite. I never saw one before.

That was one of the bottles that prompted me into buying them Brain. There may be many of them, but its a first for me as well.

Lou, You got a good deal on the lot for sure.I would guess the Lightning Blood Elixer is a fairly decent bottle.Is it embossed Springfield,O. on it?I am pretty sure that is where it originates from.
