75 is good for any of them really. The one that actually says summer - winter with a smooth base goes for around 70 tops... fi you like it I would buy it.

Which one is it? quart, pint, 1/2 pint, both trees in foilage or one bare and one in bloom? Does it say summer winter and are the trees framed in oval panels?

 

[epackage]

it is pint with trees on both sides of the flask

75 is a good buy then, that is a rather scarce one and usually goes around 150+, you sure it doesnt have oval panels?

It says summer and winter on the sides, what do you mean by an oval panel?

 

[tigue710]

if it says summer winter on both sides it is a GX-15, and one of the more common varients. the tree is in the oval panels on each side with summer & winter embossed above the panels respectivly. Some have sheared lips and others applied. If there is no damage and it has an open pontil your doing o.k. for 75, with an Iron pontil you doing a little better. If it is not pontiled then 75 is about top dollar for the bottle, but not too much... This all if the bottle is aqua, any other color and its a steal...

I'm gonna take a few pic's before I buy it Tigue and let you tell me what you think then.

there is only one that has the words summer winter on it, this one, the lip could be different though on the one your talking about

 

[epackage]

that's exactly what it looks like, it's at least a pint size

 

[tigue710]

yup, these are all pints... like I said before 75 would be fair but top dollar for a smooth base, a good price for the pontil variants which run 100-120...

Personaly these are my favorite flasks, so for 75 If I hadnt already had one or if it was nicer then the one I have I would buy it...
