I have dug them in Yolo and Solano Counties, here in N. CA. One pit held 3 smoker examples. At that time, like other bottles we appreciate so much these days, they didn&#39;t command much respect. A hundred to hundred fifty bucks was all that could be dragged out of a real nice AAA. Of course, now that they are &quot;respected&quot; I can&#39;t seem to score one that isn&#39;t in several parts. We&#39;ll keep trying, though, it&#39;s what we do.OldCuttershttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08100009168892063834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8277506439468906997.post-35332069864035732442010-02-07T21:33:55.920-08:002010-02-07T21:33:55.920-08:00This is a beautiful bottle!

Gold Rush era town. It has been in two collections including mine.<br /> I agree GP about the AAA flasks being attractive, and I have a hard time passing up one when they become available.<br /> M.E.Miller's Extrahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13162676128646657580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8277506439468906997.post-40954156828218960062010-02-07T19:59:54.109-08:002010-02-07T19:59:54.109-08:00Wow, what a nice flask, that&#39;s a real smoker. There may be some greener but they&#39;ed have a hard time competing with the beauty of this one.
