THE HEATH COLLECTION

from

UNION, MAINERyanjordan71 is pleased to announce the distinct honor of being selected to sale the large, distinguished bottle and glass collection of Mrs. Muriel and the late Mr. Robert "Bob" Heath of Union, Maine. Formally speaking, the Heaths began their wonderful "bottle and glass hunt" in 1966 when they answered an invitation to what would unexpectedly turn out to be the charter meeting of the New England Bottle Club! The very next weekend, Bob would dig the "charter" bottle (a deep green pepper sauce) of their collection at his parents farm in Union! During the following nearly 30 years, there would be many "treasures" found, as the Heaths built their well known collection through local and distant sales, bottle and antique shows as well as buying directly from local pickers and antique dealers. As one long time Maine picker told us recently........"you never had to worry about a fair deal with the Heaths.....when Bob made an offer it was the right one"!

The Heaths "journey" was as much about people as it was about glass! Muriel (now in her 95th year), relates so poignantly "the real treasures were the friends we made along the way"!

In the winter of 2013, we were asked to sell the Heaths fine fruit jar collection at . Being pleased with both the level of enthusiasm and wide geographical interest, Muriel and her family have chosen Ryanjordan71 to handle the remainder of the Heath collection. For this "tip of the cap" we are very grateful!

Their prolific collection includes early FLASKS in such forms as Historical, Portrait, Calabash, Masonic, Sunburst, Scroll, Lyre, Pitkin, Stiegel, Nailsea, Lay Down and others. Bottle categories include: Chestnuts, Globs, Demi-Jons, Medicines, Whiskeys, Pickles, Pepper Sauces, Inks, Gins, Bitters, Figurals, Snuffs, Utility, Moxie, Poland Springs, Torpedos, Figural Standing Bears. Also Baby Bottles and Feeders (perhaps the finest known collection extant); Large collection of Sandwich Glass Salts, Colognes, Scents, Decanters, Toilets and MUCH, MUCH MORE!!

Please follow along with us in the coming weeks and months as we offer things from this superb MARKET FRESH Maine collection. ......all being sold with !
