Guys Check Digging and Finding the thread started by Blade. That was the hole my booz came out of . Blade and I dug that hole a few months ago.

The one TIQUES posted a link to is a Clevenger....best way to tell quik is the Os in booz on the roof should be centered and not drawn up into the neck...
the thread in Reproes. also has other details.

Hey Don,
Thanks for pointing that post out. you can't tell a lot from the picture, but, I can see that the original top is much sharper and cleaner than what they put on repros to make them appear old and crude.
And thank you Matt for the link to the great info posted by Steve.
Now if someone could just help me figure out my Turlington bottle I'd be doing all right!!

Thanks guys!

Hi Charlie!

I've got a lot of Clevenger repros, but, they're packed in a box in the shed right now.

CHAR...that ain't no place for Clevenger bottles...especially Booz cabins....[]

This Forum is a good place to learn about a lot of bottle categories and related topics...I am amazed at the knowledge Peeps display/share in here on a daily basis.[]

CHARLIE,
You are so right! I wish I had someplace to put all my Clevs, someday when I'm in my own place again!! And this forum is just terrific. You'll get no argument from me!
