George and Samson, thanks for your kind replies regarding this bottle!  Pat, I agree with you as well, that the one side of the bottle looks identical to yours!  I love the subject matter as the child in the foreground appears to jump off the bottle. And I like the natural scene on your bottle too. Your timeline appears correct as according to my grandmother's records, this bottle was purchased from Michael Kaynes in 1980, and she called it a modern bottle.  My grandfather was a geologist and often sent mineral specimens to Mr. Kaynes which he had made into bottles for my grandmother's collection.  Sometimes they would also buy bottles from him, too, as they were early members of the ICSBS.

Well, Happy New Year!
