Some of you may remember that the past few years I have set up at the smallish Houston Antique Bottle Show and used the opportunity to bring some bottles and show off. I admit it. Not many figural collectors here so I use the opportunity to create a few bottle settings on a light box and play with my iPhone. This year was I was roaring with Rohrer’s, fishing for FOHBC memberships and knee-deep in corn.
