ReplyDeleteExceptional color-run, Dale & Barbara!
ReplyDeleteMost would say color is king, and when you put the "Big Kahunas" of the bottle kingdom in multiple colors they really look quite majestic and grand.
P.S. It was great seeing you both at The Canyonville Show this year :)

Thank you Lance for the kind words. It was a real pleasure seeing you at The Canyonville Show and thank you for letting me know about the boxed demijohn ! Thanks Rick for posting the photos, much appreciated :)
ReplyDeleteWow!
ReplyDeleteMakes western whiskies look kinda, uh, boring~
Killer stuff!

Gorgeous Demi's!!!!! Do any of them have a glass works mark/embossing on the base? I have seen a few in amethyst with OGW embossed on their base. Nice! Dale M.
ReplyDeleteTim Higgin's had, at one time, one of the best OGW collections that I had seen. I believe he sold it to one of the SoCal collectors. It would be interesting to do a post on OGW. Anyone have any OGW's they want to send pictures of?

Dale M the yellow example has a based mark, a "d" with some numbers. Rick, I have an OGW demijohn example in a light pinkish hue, will send you some pictures.
