Help with some ACL's !

Have a chance to buy these cheap, are any of them worth it. I don't collect them so they will be for sell or trade. Thanks for any advise ! Mitch

How much is the Central?

So I gather that your interest is more in making money than it is in how the bottles were made - or when. Today's collectors do not seem to be just into bottles. I am an old collector - that has concentrated on the hand blown bottles. So all I can do is smile about the pushing trends of what I consider modern glass products. Oh well - what ever blows your bubble is a good hobby., RED M.

Those are some great labels!..really like that Colonial...and the Werbelow's is pretty cool too. Graphics man!...it's all about the graphics...although I like go a little deeper into each bottle. But true some people could care less about ACL's... Every one has a niche...well I have several!

Thanks Ivan. I'm starting to like them more and more. Mitch

I can assure you that Mitch is not in it to make money on these... I asked him to get that Central for me, and he gave me a great deal on it.

I'm sorry Red, I read right by your post. No I'm not in it for the money. When I first joined here you were always answering my post, even on common stuff. As we get older I think the really old bottles will be harder to come by. What is too modern for some of us is ancient to the new, younger collector. Here in the south the pontil's and hand blown bottles are a little harder to come by. Nobody read this wrong ! I'm not offended by Red's statement. All I'm doing is trying to help some of these guys get what they want. I have had several deals with other members in the last few months and have several more ongoing right now. There is hardly any money being made by me or them. I get a joy I can't really put words to by helping them get what they want. And in some of the deals I get what I want. Thanks, Jonathon ! Mitch
