Thanks, you guys. I know they are mostly ordinary stuff, but we like 'em.

Digswithstick, what would you like for me to zoom in on? The witch balls? (In the old days, some people thought they repelled witches. It didn't work around here. Oops. I didn't say that, understand me? I DID NOT SAY THAT! I didn't mean it, either.)

They did survive hibernation. The only damage was that one of the fire grenades sucked in its cork and the carbon tet fumes disintegrated the paper (?) collar with collar labels. The front label is dark, but undamaged.

These bottles still had dust on their shoulders from when they were on display pre-1978. The lazy fool who packed them up didn't even take the trouble to dust them. Wait a minute! I packed them. Doh!

Hello onsbudsman, That is a neat coverage of a broad spectrum of bottles. Thanks for showing them to us. Through this FORUM of bottle people you can search all their brains to know what you have and they will tell you more information than you may want to know. In fact I have been told that I provide TMI "Too Much Information", so I have to keep it cooled.
You have a great selection of collectables. RED Matthews

Whoever said that, Red, did not have proper authorization.. I want you to go back to how you were before TMI was an issue, please.. what else am I gonna do, stare at the lack of info? [8|]
