Hi Bruce, there is some info here http://www.glassmessages.com/index.php/topic,6522.0.html on uploading photos, towards the bottom there is a link to a program that can be used to resize your photos.

Are there any marks on the base of your bottle?

John.

A forum member confirmed that's it's Erik Hoglund for Boda, from the early 60's or so.  I sent him some photos via my gmail account (the ones I have are too large for this site, will try to take some lower resolution photos later this week).  I was told it's worth about $100, around $200 if sold by a dealer. 

Thanks for all the help folks!

Bruce

P.S.  My email account is bahamabruce... 'at' sign... gmail.com.

You don't need to take lower resolution pictures, just resize them in a simple picture editing programme. There is usually a standard Microsoft one installed. I resize so that the longest dimension is a 600 pixels (which is about what the one you attached is) and then do as save as.
