I could help but to break down and buy this crude little booger and the Mansfield show on Friday..I am a sucker for age but if all Toc stuff looked like this I could change my interest.

That is an awesome one. Woooowie, that one is very trippy. Here is one my buddy dug and I traded for. Great strawberry color and loaded with bubbles.

Man I wish you would have posted this a week ago! I gave away an amber abm cone ink that was the crudest looking bottle I have ever dug. It had turned in the mold, and it swirled very badly. The mold seams where pulled halfway around the thing. Some early abm crown top sodas are crude like this too. I have a blackglass crown top that is super crude. I will try to get a pic. Very cool bottle man!

Funny, I bought mine from a Massachusetts dealer. It did not cost me much at all.

You see some wild inks like that in those big lots of late victorian bottles brought over from England. The inks and sauces where made extremely cheap and there wasnt much quality control. You find a lot of defects and stuff like olive/amber swirls through the glass. I used to see many for $1-$3 but not as common anymore. Its a good example of cool looking glass that can still be gotten cheap.
