Don't know if this is the right forum,but the question suits it...

All diggers and collectors come opon a bottle or jar etc,that is one of a kind and no info nor history can be found using all avilable resources....
For example I have a "Dr. Wilsons Magnetic Oiment" pontil light apple green,with lots of screw ups on the lettering embossing......
I will have a pic up asap,
but how do we put a price on these and who records the data for such one of a kind bottles........does anyone even keep records "besides digger odell and his extestive book collecton"good thing he's keeping records,......

Bottles are a strange and somtimes fustrating collectable for me due to No avalible records,and the lack of intrest in low dollar glass....
Also anyone ever notice how many J.Ryan,J.lake,J.Owens etc etc blob's are out there,why so many J's?...............theres a mind blower.....lol
