Had a good time at Shupp's Grove this summer, with good freinds and people I never knew. Weather was not great, but we made the best of it. Ate out of a cooler, and cooked on a grill. Picked up a few bottles, mostly for re-sale. This was the only one for my collection. Its a 1/2 Pint HANBURY SMITH / KISSINGEN WATER. Nicely whittled, with a blob top, instead of the applied tapered top in aqua. I have about a dozen Hanbury Smith 1/2 Pints, this is the first Aqua I have come across. There are Mineral Waters. Kisseingen Water, and Vichy Water Half Pints. It was wicked stained, and I handed it right off to my freind Leo from Mass to clean. It was only stained, and it came out great. Here's a couple pictures.size=2][/size]

Nice round blob top. All my others have applied tapered lips.

Here's another Kissengen Water, with an early applied lip. This is a favorite.

Thanks Michael, that one of the best bottles in my collection. I have not seen another in this color. Its bright yellow olive, with an orange swirl around it.
