Hi,
I'm feeling like a babe in the woods. My uncle passed away leaving several types of collectables. I have circa 1960 decanters. I'm trying to find the best resources available. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Best Regards

Thiis is a picture of one of the decanters I have. If anyone could please turn me in the right direction so that I can find out what resources are available to me. I really need to educate myself. Thank you to anyone that can help me.

If you were able to find a 1991 book called. Offical Price Guide Bottles
Eleventh Edition
by Jim Megura ISBN; 0-876-37843-2
Published by House of Collectibles
201 East 50th Street
NY NY 10022
This book devotes some time to old bottles, and from Page 265 to 357. There are decanters, different bottles of the type you show. You should be careful in collecting these type bottles, such as Jim Beam and Avon. The market was flooded with these so the pricing books may be off by many dollars.
