Well I'm afraid you might have to completely ignore my stupid musings over this being a Dobson design - I don't know what got into me, because there's a big one in Mark's book, slightly different shape - it tapers up to the rim from the square shape in a straight line, without tapered shoulders, but is a Michael Harris design.

However, I've only ever seen these slightly later ones, and them not that often. Mark says a major difference is in how thickly the later ones are cased too. Mine are certainly thickly cased. I'll get a pic later.

Thanks for your reply carolglass - I don't feel quite so bad.  :kissy:

The bottle you posted about is still a very nice one, honestly!
Cheers, Sue M. (she/her)

Earth without art is just eh.
