Hi, JustGlass; I checked out all your pictures and liked the one dated 7/1/10 @4:55:45 the best. What can you tell me about it? After you tell me what you know, I will tell you what I think of it. Thanks for the showingl there are some neat ones there. I would like to know more about the last one also, ie: the demijohn. RED M.

Back again. Just Glass; What do I see in the left shoulder area of that demijohn? Are they bubblesor seeds or relative to the mold material. What type of mold seams are on that demi?

I also liked the excessive sloppy glass under he finish of the strapside @ 5:12:21, I was wondering about the different reflection near the bottom.

It is a nice showing of glass, Thank you. RED Matthews

Red here is a full size picture of that bottle. Its just a blackglass quart with a strange base. I always thought it was blued from the maker putting to much heat to the pontil area.

Ive heard the term screaming yellow...It must have originated from this whiskey bottle.
