I am offering for sale the wine antiques collection of Carroll Johnson.  A very discriminating collector, Carroll sought wine antiques in very good condition for over 35 years. Over 200 of Carroll’s wine antiques are shown in the book Wine Antiques & Collectibles. These include cradles, coasters, tastevins, bin labels, bottles, chariots, coopers’ tools, vineyard tools, corkers, bungs, and much more. A handful of his 2000+ corkscrews are also shown. Carroll became a member of the International Correspondence of Corkscrew Addicts in 1989 at the invitation of Bob Nugent.

Excellent  - I have never seen another as nice as this one.
