If you look closely, she states right in the durned writeup that her "excogitated" labels were copyrighted in 2008 (but don't you dare copy them).
What kills me are all the terms she throws around, for instance, where she discusses casting lines (seams) and the history of molds and glass.
Whitehall-Tatum was the first glass factory?
The cork and its label were obviously charred, but it looks great.

My excogitated labels have been granted US Copyright (2008), and may not be reproduced in whole or part without written permission."

If they were marked as such it wouldn't be as bad. You could tell on examination and the buyer couldn't pass it on as easily. I have my doubts the are and without the © on it I'll make as many as I want to.[:D][:D][:D]

Even though we all don't agree with what they are doing, the labels do look impressive....in artwork and design. They would do well in the movie prop business (if more bottles were used in movies of a by gone era)

More fuel for the fire. The Granny Fakes are being sold as hinge molds when they are not.
