Please allow me -WHOW! I am totally STUNNED by the absolute majesty of the colour photos in ABC 16.1 never thought it possible. The front page and coloured lip bottles in the centre spread are out of this world. This issue of ABC must be a special collectors piece. I surely will be enjoying it for a long time. Thank you. Chris Jacobs, Upington, South Africa.

...Just a quick letter to congratulate you on a fantastic mag…I've collected on and off for probably the last 18 years and given more away than I have kept!! I couldn't believe from the contents of the magazine how much the hobby has grown and also the prices- Unbelievable! Thank you for rekindling the collecting flame. All the very best, M Jones. Oakham.

…As a graphic designer and printer by trade I really can appreciate the quality of photographic reproduction in the ABC. I've been a collector and dealer for 25 years and during that time I have never seen such high quality photographic reproduction of glass bottles and stoneware, anywhere in the world…. David Westcott, Deniliquin, Australia.

…Congratulations to you and the magazine team. I think it grows from strength to strength. What I guess a majority of us collectors like are the well-researched articles which give an insight into what the bottles we now all avidly collect were used for. In addition, the articles propel the hobby forward and earns it respect from outside establishment... Dave Orman, Dorset Antique Bottle Collectors Club.

…I just want to congratulate you on the latest edition of the magazine. It really is well balanced with all the latest news and finds, excellent well-researched articles and most importantly top quality photographs. In my opinion, and I hope without in any way sounding patronising, you and the team are now producing a top quality magazine which is unbiased in any way. Brian Thatcher, London.

ABC 16 is the best bottle magazine ever and it shows what the hobby has been missing for the past twenty-five years. Keep up the good work. D. Johnson. Surrey
