You won some little colored glass perfume/cologne decanters. I wonder if the "bottlecap" will be on the front, rear or on the roof. I remember seeing those in a catalog that my Mom had back in the 70's. It will be about 8" or so.

I think you're getting into Avon collectables at a good time.

Crap, Wayne. You won alotta crap.
Well, except for item #9. But even that's borderline crap if you ask anyone not on this board. (Thanks for bringing a chuckle to my morning, though.)

A friend of mine gave me a box with the bottle that is #9 in the auction. Box is cool, but the bottle looks like someone did a stretch job on a 911.

Now you can spray it on yourself and smell like an old boat.
 Porsche made aftershave? Who knew? What's in it? Maybe oil dripped from 911s? Some of McQueen's sweat? Eau de bearing grease? I'm curious to know!

these were around in the 70's..typically filled with some brutish-type cologne.

This is the stupid garbage you used to get from the Avon lady.

Here are a few pics of what should be in that box. ( Dig the Cord and the MG as well) Looks like yours is the rare "extended engine compartment" version

I guess you'll have to send the Fuchs off to get them updated to "hyper black".

SWEET! My brother and I had a bottle of "Vantastic" when I was about 9 or 10. I used to throw some on right before I'd get on the school bus. It drove the 4th grade ladies wild, wild I tell ya.

I concur... the market on Avon decanters has bottomed out, can only go up from here. You may want to check with tabs on their investment value. Funny, I still have a corvette colonge bottle my mom gave me.
