Peck and I dug a beautiful example in old Broderick back in the day. It brought a hefty $500 at the time, so that kinda dates it. LOL<br /><br />That's most interesting, Warren. I wonder if the flasks ordered were embossed or just "generic". If he actually filled and distributed 72 embossed 1/2 or pint J. Moores then the potential for a "new" discovery is there. Whose to know where, or if, they were actually sent out to be sold. Perhaps there could be just such a bottle laying in Pioche privy. One more reason to go over and "play" there. Makes the "wheels" turn, doesn't it?Mike Dolcinihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08100009168892063834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8277506439468906997.post-36307681070371024022010-07-31T16:51:13.310-07:002010-07-31T16:51:13.310-07:00Dale,

In the early teens, he lived in a construction car on a siding in a community by the name of Wrights, in the Santa Cruz mountains of California. One day we went for a drive up to Wrights Station, as it became known. He recalled that a certain Madame so and so had a "fancy house" above the tunnel portal of the east entrance. We crawled our way up to the flat where the house of repute had stood and on the way up the steep incline found several very late Jesse Moore fifths. They were clear with a hint of greenish grey, were machine made with a cork closure - long tapered collar over single ring and most closely resembled variant 573. <br /><br />Unfortunately, it was at that time that the deputy for the water works caught us "trespassing" and we were escorted from the premises and warned that we'd get "free meals and lodging at the crowbar hotel" if we were ever seen there again. I've not seen another example like them in the forty years since.<br /><br />Bruce <br />http://www.westernwhiskeytooltopgazette.com/Kentucky Gemhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16201818884914482275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8277506439468906997.post-55489600102064371582010-07-31T12:44:40.583-07:002010-07-31T12:44:40.583-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.Kentucky Gemhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16201818884914482275noreply@blogger.com
