    Ho Bra, Real original name welcome to the forums. I think this is a good thing for the digging community.
    Congrats on your great score. I bet you will never forget that day. Best of all you were with your wife. She must be the good luck. If the bottle should ever need a home you know what to do. CHEE HOO !!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Was gonna call myself blobalicious but didn't want to get kicked off the site if somebody didn't get it and instead got offended by my love of blobs. Thanks for the cheehoos from all the braddahs and look forward to seeing you all on Tuesday. May the diggin continue to be good for us all this holiday season.

    Re: mountains find

    You seeing it right - it is double-etched. Maybe the guy who made it didn't like his first attempt with the acid and decided to do it one more time; or maybe something like how the embossed ones come doubled too, in the making, unintentionally.

    Just tripped out when I first cleared some of the dirt and saw the etching. Did that a bunch of times before with bottles that looked real similar but turned out to be naked. Like the clothes on this one, even if layered twice.
