Well, once we started getting some paychecks we started hitting ebay kind of hard...and there has been some wonderful finds as of late (actually for over a year now). Anyway, here is a group shot of all the bottles we just picked up in the last month. We have others in the works right now, some great and exciting ones. If this keeps up, we wont have any money for Columbia show. Sorry for the large picture...
On the left is a very rare KR-7 with beveled edges. The standard KR-7 is scarce and is worth about $75 on a good day. This I have never seen for sale before, just a picture in a book, so I did not know what it was worth and the book didn't say either. Paid a great amount for this, but I'm glad we won!
Next is a KE-3 Jacob Hulle. It's English but it's one we have been wanting for quite some time.
Next is a very rare 4 1/4" KR-14. We have a smaller one I bought the wife for Christmas 2 years ago, THIS is my GIFT on my birthday. She got it for a song. The seller had at least 4 of these of the same size. I still have no idea how he came upon so many rare bottles all at once. Musta found a box somewhere. Someone must have told him what they are worth cuz the latest one listed is at $950. So 2 others got theirs for a song as well.
Next, a nice companion to our 3 1/4" amber Owl Drug Bottle. This 4 1/2" comes with label and original cork (and it shows it's age). This was my wife's early V-day present. She will get more tomorrow. []
Next, this tiny little thing is the smallest KD-1. Has a circular crack on the left edge. But the wife had to have it...just so cute. Has been on ebay for months as it was listed too high for this bottle in this condition (the seller was told it was worth more than it was)
Lastly, is a little slick we got as a gamble. It had almost the same size as a very rare KS-60. Alas, it wasn't. Poison was only on the label and not down the side of the bottle. But for .99 we thought it was worth the chance. Label is crispy and is being held on by one panel only. Very fragile, but it's cute.
Thanks for looking.
