BRUCE SPECHT PHOTO


Blenko Collector Bruce Specht writes: " As part of a larger effort to get organized I have unpacked all of our collection so that I can choose and pick pieces for photographing. Now, if only the winter sun will cooperate since I do not use any artificial lighting. First up is a nice grouping of Husted designed Tangerine stoppered bottles. From left to right a 626S, 6123M, and 6123S. I especially like the two smaller bottle stoppers that have a tangerine swirl captured inside."
