Now my question. If yo look at the first pick the hop leafs are different. its tough to tell unless you see them in person. And theres a difference in neck length (one on right is about 1/4 inch taller), slope of the panels, when looking from the top the one on the right is slightly larger , and the one on the right has a "textured" look and feel to the neck. is there any difference between the two or is it just the mold? Thanks for the help!

Hey Tony, If you tried to collect just the mold variations on those it woold take up a large area. I have had many of them and the only ones I kept are almost identical but from different molds. one has about 60% of the lable but has never been opened.

Nice Doyle's, Tony. Cap is right, there are enough mold variations of them to drive you nuts if you tried to find all of them. Warner's Safe Cures are the same way, I think every one I have ever dug was slightly different. ~Jim

VIVE LA DIFFERENCE!!!
I think if each type of antique bottle was identical, it would not be such an interesting hobby!
