I'm just sitting here fooling around on the computer waiting for another aftershock/earthquake to hit like the 5.7 shaker we had last night, (I live in Southern California) and hope no one minds that I straightened up the last image. []

P.S. ~ mgn553 ... You're welcome. And you are more talented than you think. That's a great photo of a great bottle. Possibly the rarest one currently on AntiquBottles.net. Good job!
Welcome back, or front. Thanks for the larger pictures, and a tip o' the cap to Bob, but I don't have any 100% button. You guys must have the turbo edition of ABN.
That George Eagle is something else all together. Wonderful bottle, unlike any embossed soda I ever clapped eyes on! I don't agree with Mr. Guest in calling it a "Swirl." There has gotta be a better graphic description... I'm really glad you shared it here.
I hope I'm not alone in wanting more of those supersized pictures.
Have you been back to this yellow snow zone with clam rake?[8D] There could be other contemporaries of that Eagle just waiting for your method of finding.
Hi. Regarding 100% button, it's at the bottom right corner and it's not part of ABN as such I don't think. I think of the basic setup on the computer, at least it is with Explorer. There's an icon of a little magnifying glass along the bottom gray strip and just to the right of that is the 100% thing. Just click that black arrow.
As for Mr. Eagle, I still can't believe it was just there. I believed when I picked it up but since I've learned so much more about it, well that's the part I can't believe now.
The first expert to see it was Mr. Heckler and even he was quite impressed. Ooohs and ahhhs all over the place at a bottle show last year.
So, anyway, gotta get ready to watch the President tell us how he has no idea how we're going to stop that oil flow in the Gulf.
MGN are these the same bottles, the first pic you showed me has what looks like a different top than the second pic which was taken on a towel or something ??????
