David's Bottles
The last miNiZ showed a Kuwabara Winery / Haas
Brothers sample letter opener bottle that I sold to Pete
Gabbard. I thought you might like to see some more
KW/HB samples.
Have a look at the letter opener (back page, miNiZ128) and you will see that the
bottle top right is similar but different .There is a third football, one that in a moment
of silliness I sold to Father Joe.
David Spaid
Is this the one you sold David? The picture is from a
collection sold a few years ago in Ohio (I forget the
collector’s name). Do you wish to take Confession Father
Joe and admit to selling it? Or is this yet another footballer
sample?
By the way, I love the two Samurai. There have been
black & white scans of these (from MBC) on Miniature
Bottle Library since it was set up. The colour versions are
spectacular, a real pity there was never a production run.
