Rabbit candy jar

[botlguy]

Once again, this is the type of post / thread that these forums are best for. Besides, it's fun to help another collector. I agree about the cost of reference books but I like them almost as much of the Bottles, Jars & Insulators. Jim

I like them more, they don't break and you don't have to wrap them when you move.

I love books as much as I love bottles , they tell me just as much.

Well bought the book (Compleat American Glass Candy Containers Handbook/With Supplement) got it today, no supplement and rabbit not in there![:'(] and yes compleat is spelled just that way on the book. Only dropped 11 bucks and change so adding it to the shelf!!!! By the way E & A stands for Eikelberner & Agadjanian the authors of the revised edition.

What does it show for # 614? That is the number shown in the auction catalog. Or is that number in the absent supplement?

Send the book back saying its supplement was missing, and you are displeased-- that you did not get what you paid for and desire a full refund?

Jim, # 614 shows a similar (slightly smaller with a marking on the body by the base "1 oz Avor" ) Rabbit so close but no cigar! Mine may be a later one done with reworked mold?Bear, I'm in communication with the seller so we will see.

I was only a "dealer" for a very short time and never collected many books other than bottle research and a few "price guides" that I never paid much attention to for the prices. I got some odds and ends like LP's, comic books and some Jim sent me on Tokens and a couple others but I just don't have the money or room to be a "dealer" again, just have a interest in things I'm already comfortable with.
I have got some cool stuff on Indian myths and legends, wild edible and medicinal plants and a few of the Foxfire and similar books.

On closer examination it appears to be #612 variation B in the book we have been talking about, the rabbit originally had a green head with gold ears and the gold ribbon on neck. Still no date range or manufacturer.Eric, I am not a "dealer", just a dedicated collector / hoarder (lol) I do hit garage sales and estate sales as entertainment (cheaper than the movies) to make a few extra bucks to supplement my retirement, and as a result end up with some weird stuff.
