                                                            realistic as to colouring. I have provided two
                                                            photos as it is difficult to see the purple on the

                                                            obviously pre-WWII.

               There is, of course, a bi-plane on the MMBC 11  show bottle. The Flying Forester is one of
               the rarer ‘railways’ bottles from Old Forester. The Coca Cola airplane clock is not really a
               bottle – but I do like it. Motor Paradise is from Suntory. It has also been sold in another (not
               as nice) box. Destiladora of Mexico made the pressed glass bottle, probably in the 1930’s.
               The bottle was also used by Garnier. The Dakota on the left was made by A. van Wees for
               the Dutch Dakota Association. The green Dakota is from Hulstekamp, also a Dutch
               company. An earlier version is on a ceramic stand but most of these you see have the stand
               missing.
