Porcelain Stoppers...

[epackage]

If your looking for a nice go with and you collect from the North Eastern US you might want to check these out from CandC, I find it hard to believe these were all dug from a Paterson NJ dump and yet none are from NJ but I guess it's possible[8|]. Maybe someone was collecting way back when and the collection got tossed in a dump here??

Anyway there are some great tops to be had if you're looking to complete a bottle with an original stopper which I love to do.....Jim

Funny, I had run into a fellow some years back who purchased all my odd Hutter stoppers, I had coffee cans full of them, with the firms name on the top. Nice guy, paid me a buck or two each, I was happy. Now I have even seen them out on tables for sale at shows (the South River show I saw stoppers for sale on a table). Might be the up and coming thing......

I'd say they're definitely collectible, not as much as the bottles though. Everyone wants to reunite a bottle with its stopper, especially collectors of local stuff.

Stick them in a tile saw, drill em with a masonry bit and make drawer pulls if you get too many.

I have a collection of Baltimore ones and have sold several for over $50 on ebay. I had one bring about $125, 5 or 6 years ago.

This is very topical. I'm thinking of listing one that I found on ebay that I have never seen before. I'm curious as to what will happen.
