How do we rate Frank’s first real experience with the world of snuff bottles? Can we say that it was a very exciting time?
Or should it go down as a mistake, just an error in what is called “the learning curve”?
We've all been there!!!!!!!!

Frank,

The story behind the bottle was a great read in my opinion.  But I always appreciated the stories behind how snuff bottle collectors got started, or in this case the story behind a special acquisition.  We all have a few!  Thanks for taking the time to put it to words, and most importantly catalog that text with your bottle.
