  1. Nice stuff, Rick. Let's have an auction!!! :-)

    The Liebig's are cool. Dug one in that size about twenty years ago in L.A. Haven't dug another down here since.

  4. You are 100% correct. That is "your" Wormser. I took the picture at Jeff's. Seems to me we are all just caretakers of the bottles in our collections. Enjoy them while you can.

  5. I recognized the "scene" but didn't want to say anything. There are some bottles in that room that were plucked from the earth by yours truly.

  6. Just an idea that struck me as I read the comments about Ricks bottles is this. We in the Bonzai tree hobby always make a permanent note in our records, personal as well as club records, as to who originally styled and created a tree that was bought into another collectors collection. And whenever that tree is shown or displayed the original owner is noted on the card. I think that it would be super neat if all us bottle collectors and bottle clubs did the same thing for who found or dug a bottle as to first ownership. At least the important bottles, that way their modern history would be preserved as well as the historic one. Although it sounds as if from what I read in these blogs this is somewhat allready done.....Andy
