Once again the Flint Bottle Show was a sold out venue for dealers and had a huge 300+ walk thru of lookers. This was the club's 44th annual show. There were bottles, insulators, lightning rod balls, duck decoys, you name it and it was probably there. This is our first show of the season and we look forward to attending it every year.
