True Citron Hutch

[Jim]

In the coming weeks, I am going to be cutting loose some nice, non-local bottles from my collection. I have a few really good locals lined up to buy, so these guys need to find new homes to replenish the "buy stash".

My first offering is this "maverick" hutch in true citron green. This bottle has a blank slug plate and a 12-sided "mug" base. I know, it would be really sweet if it were embossed, but these are quite scarce in this color. THIS BOTTLE NOT TO BE SOLD is embossed on the back. I have not seen another one quite like this. Condition is dug, but nice. There is a slight amount of light haze and a few very light external scratches. A very light spin in the tumbler would make it perfect, but it looks great as-is. The remains of its decrepit original stopper are in the bottom of the bottle.

I really have no idea what this one is worth, so anyone who is interested may PM me with an offer. 100% money back if it is not to your satisfaction in every way. Thanks. ~Jim

TBNTBS embossing on the back. I'll miss this one if it sells, but the rowdy Lewistown crowd says it needs to leave their shelf [&:]

Pretty bottle Jim. Any glassmaker info on it? Like ROOT or ABCo or NBBGCO?

Thanks, Bob. There are no manufacturer's marks, the heel and base are completely blank. There is not even a number on the base. It's about as plain as a hutch gets aside from the mug base and nice color. ~Jim

Wow great color on that one. I'll keep an eye on this thread. I am trying to get a colored collection of beers / sodas going. Mostly IP's but this color would go great.

Thanks, Ben. It is definitely a different color for a soda bottle. It's actually just a bit more green than the pictures show, it's a hard color to photograph. ~Jim
