rare bottle

[jono1uk]

So today i had a chat wth one of our resident slide experts Lewis ( lonelyjelly) regarding the best bottles to use for slides.
He educated me about Mateus Rose and said pre 73 is "the one" but later ones are good as long as they are green.
a few hours later i had precured this .. for £15  ..confirmed by Mcweemeister as a pre -73! .... Happy days...
The seller had no idea of the value and made it into a table lamp... thought she might see the light ..( i'll get my coat)

Nice one Jon! I only relayed to you what Ian told me 😉 Any knowledge I have about glass is from conversations with the main man over the last couple of years ~ it turns out I am interested in glass lol.
