It might be very exclusive or I just missed it. I couldn't find an addy for them anywhere, only that the founders chapter is Boston.

CREWE...I think that one was pontilled...it sold on eBay in excess of $50.00 if I recall correctly.[/align] [/align]ERIC...thanks for that update. I've been looking forward to Tom's book for some time now. It will be an invaluable resource for collectors and researchers alike.[/align]


Another color of the Imperial Glass Co...West VA Commemorative flask.

RE: CLEVENGER BROS.

ok..back to the stirrup flasks...posts #18 & #51. I may be a bit closer in determining their origins. Saw this one on eBay. Can't tell if corker or screwcap. It is the same shape , style, etc., but with label for "Boots & Saddle" whiskey.

Clevenger Bros Jenny Lind calabashes. Only 2 of the pictured 6 bottles are marked CB on the base.

RE: CLEVENGER BROS.

where as the Czech examples have plumes arising from 3 stacks and show what appears to be a flag on the right roof edge...also note the smoke plume is wider than on the Clevenger examples.
