Dear Joey,

Thank you for your thoughts. While the approximate age appears to remain a mystery, the bottle it's self appears a good quality. The one thing that I have observed in my sporadic collecting through the years, types (material) of bottles seem to fall in and out of favor.  It can be very confusing. For one reason or other, I find that a bottle purchased for what seems to be a good price at one time has drastically changed(not for the better) in a span of five or ten years. Hornbill has me really scratching my head. I can only say that I always try to buy with my heart and look for the best quality I can find. I really appreciate your comments on this bottle. Your information is appreciated.
