New VEG decanter picked up off the bay for cheap and it took me almost 2 weeks of hunting consignment and antique shops to find a glass top stopper to fit. Required some clean up on rust inside the bottle but I think it turned out pretty good.
Just received my ABC Pocket Edition. It is in pretty good shape for being 114 years old. A little damage to the top of the handle, but looks like it will clean up really good. Pics before cleaning.
I snuck into a local antique shop and saw this with a little $4 sticker on it...Can it be saved? Challenge Accepted!! *Update* first round of clean up..still need some metal polish to kick up the shine...
Today the Mail-Lady bringeth my birth-year-quarter Gillette Slim, 1964 - J4. I am no expert but it looks pretty good to me and everything works.
