What do bottles and labels look like?

Recommended Posts

If anyone is interested, the art on the 2013 Sic Erit label is Charles Joseph Natoire's Cupid Sharpening an Arrow.

 

Thanks! Would love to see pictures of the new Luper bottles. :)

There are some that have nice artwork, kitten. :) Aside from the Shungas of course, here's Corinna and A Thought from Propertius.

Qaeris Quot also has a really nice image of two Renaissance women, but I already packed that up so I can't get a picture of it.

Hello :)

I'm hoping someone might be able to provide me w/ some info on these bottles. I've only the one bottle of Aziraphale, but the artwork on this bottle of Crowley is unlike any of the others I've ordered from the lab. It also seems to have a slightly more pronounced leather note. Please let me know if the pics don't show up. I'm computer-challenged...

Those are the original prototype labels for the Good Omens series. They were given to Neil Gaiman, and several bottles were gifted out, but the were never sold with that label. They date back to 2006.

Erm, really? Maybe I'm missing some small differences, but my bottle of Aziraphale pretty much looks exactly like that and I bought it from the lab about a year and a half ago. I'll have to check it out again...

I don't suppose anyone has a reference photo of *all* the 13s (thirteens) to date?

 

Original - white label

October 2006 - orange label

April 2007 - purple label

July 2007 - pink label

June 2008 - green label

February 2009 - black label

March 2009 - deep red label

November 2009 - tentacles label

August 2010 - dancing skeleton label

May 2011 - black with red/black swirled 13

 

Ok, huge thanks for posting this! I'm quoting it for personal ease of reference in the future and for others who have not seen it. Got a bottle of 3/13/09 on the way to me and I cannot wait, its my fave so far!

 

Also, some good news for all you triskadecaphiles out there, 2013 has 2 Friday the 13ths, September and December. Can't wait to see what the lab comes up with!

Does anyone have a bottle of this year's Smut (or any idea about the label art this time around)?

This year's Smut matches the rest of the 2013 Lupers - red and white stripes

OctoberGwen & Elka: Thank you so much for posting those pics!

 

The Water Snake notes aren't good for me at all. Still the classic label & the fact that I'm enamoured by all things "snake," makes a bottle somewhat tempting. Isn't that ridiculous?
