<p>[QUOTE="bercrystal, post: 4401458, member: 88"]I was able to find a different bottle with this stopper in one of my books. The bottle & stopper is shown in yellow. The book is <i><u>Perfume Bottles for Desser and Purse from Czechoslovakia 1920s - 1930s</u></i> by Verna Kocken. </p><p><br /></p><p>The author has this as a description of the bottle -"bottles in this style were used commercially by Max Factor". </p><p><br /></p><p>So while I believe this bottle was made in Czechoslovakia I have my doubts regarding the Hoffman connection. The main reason is that I knew the author of this book & if this bottle was made by Hoffman I feel she would have made mention of this fact. However, I do not purport to be an expert regarding his bottles. So I have emailed someone I know who really knows Czech bottles. Hopefully, she'll answer my questions in the email I sent to her. </p><p><br /></p><p>I will let you know if she replies to me.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
