I am currently processing ‘straight’ Dutch bottles for
Miniature Bottle Library. I had about 7000 photos stacked
up and have been finding some great bottles both glass
and crocks. I will bring you some highlights in a future
miNiZ. If you do have any photos of Dutch bottles please
get them to me ASAP – minizv@gmail.com
I make good use of the links on the club web site to view other mini bottle sites and, in some cases,
obtain new photos for MBL. The site is updated from time to time. The two red Pipe bottles came
from a Chinese site: http://wines.mini9s.com/ There are an increasing numbers of collectors in
China and of Chinese sites. Another one I came across recently is:
http://photo.blog.sina.com.cn/category/u/1610875773/s/263808 These sites can be somewhat
difficult to follow if you do not read Chinese but it is worth persevering. It does help that China uses
the same numerals we do so I can tell you that both pipe bottles are 50ml.
If you do find a Mini
Bottle site that is
not shown on the
club web site
please let us know
about it. This
includes sites on
Facebook and
other social media.
If in doubt send us
the link as I have
all the sites on a
spreadsheet and
can tell within
seconds if it is one
that is already
listed or a new one.
Also if you find a
broken link let us
know. Sites come and go (we deleted about 40% of the links over 4 years but added a similar
number of new ones). Happy collecting!
