Thanks for information everyone. I figured it was legit just bit surprised had questions it being so cheap at a house sale. Here are better pics in the sun light. Definitely might be small chip at lip though but rest of bottle looks great perfect.

Great (and authentic) score! Most Jeny Linds have open pontils, if I'm remembering correctly. That fat IP makes it all the more desireable to me. I'd mess my drawers if I found something like that at a yard sale for a buck.

It's gonna be a GI-110, listed as rare. Prettiest of the three molds, and with the strong iron pontil and great glass character, it's a goodie. The chip don't help matters, but the other attributes make up for it.

Interesting yes that's what my I was thinking either 110 or think it was GI-100 It's definitely a qt size. My book might not have it listed but it doesn't list one having a iron pontil. Hmm?

The GI-100 is a calabash mold, unless you meant to type 109. The 110 is the only one of the three Jeny Lind lyre molds with the vines running up the sides.

I probably need a updated book one I'm looking at is from early 90s. Numbers are bit different. I appreciate the info.

Sometimes, older is better. This book has yet to be topped for identifying early flasks. I got mine from the late Carl Sturm at the Orlando show back in '86. He told me ink had been spilled on it, but that wasn't a big deal to me. Has to be the best 15 bucks I've ever spent.
