Any ideas on the value of this thing, it stands 21" tall and 13" across??? Thanx as always...Jim

Nice Demi John! I'm just guessing at a value, $150-$250.
I personally love the hell out it!
Is a tooled top?
It doesn't look like it has a pontil

Yes it is a tooled top, I will post pictures of the bottom tomorrow so you can get a better idea ...ty...Jim

At the Vallejo show last year, I saw an open glop top, dark yellow, with tons of whittle for $350, I myself own a few carboys and amber I don't normally see in that shape, might be just me though

One a little smaller than this at about 18-1/2" just sold on ebay for $485 but it was an open pontil....I am deciding whether or not to buy it, I imagine it would look awesome with the sun shining behind it.

Hi epackage; I just came back here looking for a picture of the bottom. I to am a collector of demijohns. This one looks like an nice one. Have you been to my homepage? I pictured a couple odd ones that have a bar type mark on the bottoms, which I have not identified yet. Let us know if your selling this one. Thanks

Hi Red, here is the pic of the bottom, I have no idea what type of pontil this is if it is one at all(sand pontil maybe), It is a very attractive bottle to say the least but I haven't decided whether or not to buy it yet. It's gonna cost me $200 total($50 is in travel and tolls to pick it up) so I am really on the fence about it. Any of your incredible insights would be greatly welcome....as always thank you....Jim
