That guy sure knew how they were made. I hope his intelligence makes a big sale. Or maybe it will be a sail. Wow what intelligence. RED M.

I have been searching over 40 years for that one bottle with a pontil top and I've found it!! I have pontils on every other bottle surface but that - side pontils, front and back pontils...I even have an INSIDE pontil!! What a steal at $14!!

He must be a real student of the trade to have discovered such a treasure. If only we could all be so lucky!

He's obviously not a bottle collector. He at least seems to have tried to research it some. More than a lot of people do.

Your right GuntherHess not everyone collects bottles. But I do have to admit that people can get pretty creative with their bottle descriptions.

If a blowpipe can used for a punty, then he sorta may be right.[]
