Some of the most rare and desirable bottles from the 1850’s gold rush period will be on display this year at the Auburn Bottle Show. We will be hosting a non competitive group display in two catagories, London Jockey Clubhouse Gins and Wisters Club House bottles. These bottles both come in a wide variety of colors and this is a chance to gather the best specimens together for a wonderful display.
