FOHBC National show this weekend

[georgeoj]

I left for the show at 2am Sunday morning. No trafic at that time in the morning so the drive, while long, went very well. The show was huge and there was nearly every kind of antique bottle and jar that you could imagine. The show, like almost every one these days, was never packed but there was a steady flow of buyers/lookers until about 2pm. I took some pictures of one exhibit which I am going to post in the fruit jar section. Sales, after a slow start, went well for me and the show did not dissapoint. If you have any interest in jars, take a look at the pictures that I will post of the most fantatic midget/small mouth pint collection that I have ever seen.[8D]

Hello all,
I just returned home from the FOHBC National Show. Picked up a few and left some(literally), but a special thanks to bottlechaser62 (Jerry Moffitt) as I left the show ahead of him and left a box of Arkansas drugstore bottles behind that I had purchased from him and he was able to chase my cell number down and catch us in Cincinnati and return the bottles. Many T H A N K S again,

Dean Marvel

You should have dropped by and said Hi. I was in section M. I had a chance to meet some of the forum members and they were nice enough to pose for a few mug shots!

Here's a shot of Dennis aka "Celerycola". His table was just down the aisle from mine.

This is Dean Marvel aka "Dean"- big collector of Arkansas bottles and Cathedrals. He brought along a friend Rufus T. Buie, who I remembered from the Little Rock bottle club when I was about 12 yrs old. Dean, I will keep my eye for that South Mcalisters!
