Hey guys and gals. Everyone has probably come across a typical Hartwig case gin style bottle, right? Did you know there are at least a dozen embossing variants in the large size? How's about the 3 5/8" samples? I know of 5 variants as pictured.
Here's where it gets good. Until recently, I have only heard of two of them being known in the 5 1/2" mid-size, both belonging to a buddy of mine in Australia, he was kind enough to offer me the unlabeled one a couple years ago as pictured on the right. Actually there were rumors of one in CA., never came up for sale though.
I was lucky enough to come up with a lip variant from some one in the Netherlands on eBay. It sucks to be a seller now, not a buyer!
Just thought I'd share with the group. Keep me in the loop, I still need more of these! Gary
