MAN gin bottles are widely recognised as a desirable addition to any bottle collection. It is interesting to note that there are a variety of embossing styles, glass colours and bottle shapes and sizes. Closer scrutiny of the embossed MAN in the above 3 bottles reveals some subtle differences, including : >> Different type of hats >> Position and placement of the walking cane >> Facial features and clarity >> Fingers and thumbs holding the outstretched bottle - only visible on one bottle >> Coat pocket - all different - from none visible, to coat pocket, then bottle on right is actually a pouch with shoulder strap >> Coat style and lapels are all different |
