We all had a tough time making up our mind because the lip chip was a distraction, however after it was repaired the bottle did sell to a western bitters collector shortly after. So I would say that having it repaired did make it more palatable to own without the distraction of the missing piece of glass. The reason for the repair was not for monetary gain as it sold for the same price repaired or not. It's just more aesthetically pleasing to the eye with the repair.Warren Friedrichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08211597759694178779noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6842291092692051858.post-85968202114916357972011-03-25T10:20:22.894-07:002011-03-25T10:20:22.894-07:00Was the lip chip repair something that increased t...Was the lip chip repair something that increased the potential sales price?

It did have a lip chip that has been repaired. A very nice looking example with great swirls through the glass.Warren Friedrichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08211597759694178779noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6842291092692051858.post-85081505991538925832011-03-19T09:29:56.108-07:002011-03-19T09:29:56.108-07:00Is that amber Rosenbaums on the left the one that ...Is that amber Rosenbaums on the left the one that came out of Napa last year with a chip on the lip and some moderate swirling ?Lynn https://www.blogger.com/profile/05031002057609094421noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6842291092692051858.post-53812336971529081562011-03-14T13:28:32.352-07:002011-03-14T13:28:32.352-07:00Nice groupings of Renzs, Baums & Rangos.
