I have been contacted by a non-member who has recently inherited a collection of old bottles which were dug from the hills of Northern California by his mother.

He would like to donate the collection to Antique-Bottles.Net with the request that we photograph and catalogue the bottles and then display them on the website in memoriam for the future and lasting enjoyment of all collectors.

If there are any Members who would like to undertake the photographing and cataloguing (I can do the web pages!) and provide a home for these bottles please let me know and I will give you the donors name and email address so that you can contact him.

I don't have any details or even know how many there are!

I would love to do this myself but I am trying to spare the donor the expense of shipping them 6,000 miles to England! He is Long Beach, Calif.

Hey Jeff, if he does have too many for you , I would be happy to help you out. Don't know what shape they are in, but I could also tumble some if they were sick. (Makes for a better picture.) Just let me know if you need any help. Kelley

Morning Jeff I also dropped Rick a line... Maybe he could donate some of the specimens to those who specialize in certain areas like inks, meds, whiskeys, food etc... Taz[8D]
