49er Bottle Show Report on Worthologist site

Another site I've been reading regularly is WORTHPOINT.COM. They've got interesting articles, and info about antiques, auctions, shows and more. You can access their database with values, and even buy and sell stuff. I admit, I haven't signed up yet -- just been a "lurker", but plan to sign up soon. It's free to register, and look up values. For a fee, you can enhance your membership level, and then ask "Worthologists" about items you have.

The site seems to cover all kinds of antiques and collectibles. You know I love to share anything I find about bottle collecting, and they have a good article/show report on there now about the 49er Bottle Show that was held in California earlier this month.
