I have collected bottles since the 70's. Wanting to sell 3 historical flasks I have acquired in the last 2-3 years. Will sell individually. The pricing is good and the descriptions and photos are as follows. If you need any other information or photos, please contact me at dkbrugg60@att.net. These are all original flasks. Purchased through a well-known auction house.
Thanks,
Dave
1. GI-42 Washington Taylor flask. I purchased it in the Glass Works Auction #149 (item 109). I found it also was sold in the Heckler Auction #180 (item 291). In very good condition. Some minor high point wear. As described on both auctions, there is an area on the lip that appears to be polished (about 1/2" wide and 1/4"). Overall a great colored larger quart flask. $2300
2. “GENERAL LA FAYEETE” / BUST OF LAFAYETTE / “REPUBLICAN GRATITUDE” - EAGLE / “T.W.D.” - “KENSINGTON GLASS WORKS PHILADELPHIA”, (GI-90). Aqua. Purchased in Glass Works Auction 134 (item 9). Embossing is fair to good, but all is legible. A large internal broken thin bubble extends from top of lip to the shoulder. No cracks, lots of creases in glass on neck. No outside visible damage or wear. Very whittled. $300.
3. “ZACHARY TAYLOR” / BUST OF TAYLOR / “ROUGH AND READY” - “CORN FOR THE WORLD” / CORN STALK, (GI-74). Aqua. Purchased at GWA #134 (item 6). High point wear on corn stalk and on high points on portrait. 1/8" chip midway on lip side. Embossing good but weaker at lower part of "ROUGH & READY". $250.
