——-–2009 JFO Convention #31 April 22-26 Troy (Detroit) MI—–—-— Spring is fast approaching (I am trying to be positive for all of you snowed in members) and Troy, Michigan is a great
central location for our membership. Registration information is the last 2 pages of this issues. Please make the hotel
reservation as soon as possible. You can cancel up until the last minute. The hotel is two stories (with elevators) and
they will try to have as many members on the first floor near the hospitality room as they can. Free high speed internet
is included with the room price. I will hopefully have hospitality room details in the April issue.
Troy is 20 minutes north of Detroit just off of I-75. The hotel has two fine restaurants (they have to be better than last
year’s in St. Louis). Preliminary discussions include a tour to see a couple of local collections. As usual most of the
time will be reserved for room-to-room trading. For anyone new who might be thinking of attending their first conven-
tion, it will be the most openers and corkscrews you will ever see in one place (outside of Art Santen’s Opener Mu-
seum). Please make plans to attend and take part in a great meeting with your fellow opener collectors. Gas is cheap, a
nice room rate, great accommodations and great people. What more could you ask for??? Be there!!!

———–———-–—-—-—Members Update——————–-—–—--——– Unfortunately three more JFO members have gone to opener/corkscrew heaven. Lehr Roe passed away on October 8th,
John Hall in August and Chuck King from cancer on November 12th.
Lehr was a long time JFO member and corkscrew collector. Along with Herb Danziger he hosted the 1989 JFO Con-
vention in Frankenmuth, Mi. He along with his wife Joan attended many JFO Conventions. Lehr was well known in
corkscrew circles and a passionate collector of Haff patent corkscrews. He was 75 and survived by his wife, Joan.
John Hall was another member who attended many conventions with his wife, Anna. John really loved one style of
opener, an A-12 sword. He collected any and all regardless of the advertising on it. John was 86 and is survived by his
wife, Anna.
Chuck was also a long time member of JFO and several national beer clubs. His main love was any breweriana from
Albany, Ny. and the surrounding area. Chuck was also very easy going and usually had great merchandise to sell at
shows. Chuck was just 49 and is survived by his wife, Karen and daughter, Amanda.
Cora Whelan, wife of deceased JFO member Don, has been battling breast cancer since the end of October. The tumor
was removed but she is at high risk for the cancer to return so she is undergoing chemo treatments. Cora has been to
two JFO conventions since Don’s passing and is always the life of any gathering. Our thoughts and prayers go out to
her and the families of Lehr, John and Chuck.
A-9-14 Wayne: One of the tougher A-9s to find, ―Wayne Beer Plaza 0800
Detroit‖. I obtained this one through Ed Kaye’s baseball player collection. A
couple of examples have sold on eBay. Who knows maybe if you come to
Troy another one will turn up and you can add this rare opener to your collec-
tion. The only other Wayne Brewing from Detroit beer advertising opener is
the Post-Pro A-20-39 Wayne Products & Brewing.
Spouse’s Corner By Pat Stanley, the Editor’s Spouse
Happy 2009! How can it possibly be a new year? Hope it finds everyone reading this in good health, good spirits and
with a good opener just found.
It’s hard to believe that the last time I wrote, we were about to go to San Francisco, seems so long ago. But we haven’t
forgotten all the good memories of seeing friends, eating lots of seafood and of course, riding the cable cars!! They
were having an unseasonably warm week that was great for us, especially for our annual bike ride over the Golden Gate.
We didn’t think Pete and Angela Norwicki could have a funnier story to tell us in 2008 as the one we heard the year be-
fore, but they certainly did. It’s always fun to spend an evening with such a happy and entertaining couple. Our trip
wouldn’t be complete without a visit with Jack Ford!! If he ever retires, there will be a lot of disappointed students who
are attached to this teacher, mentor and friend. Wish I had thought of the names he has given, Jazzy and
Snazzy….Razzle and Dazzle!! Maybe we need two more because those would be such cute names. I’m sure Jack is
glad that John Cartwright comes up for a visit with us too, as John’s wife always sends some goodies from their garden
for Jack.
The plan was that after San Francisco, the kitchen remodeling would get into full swing and so it did!! Had to pack up
the entire kitchen, as everything was replaced plus one wall was extended so we could have a wall oven. The kitchen
table, small electric cooler and microwave took up what little room we have in the living room. The old refrigerator was
in the garage. For a couple of nights we couldn’t walk on the new floor, so you had to go out the front door, and come
into the garage to get things out of the refrigerator. The coffee pot was in my office, but the cream and sugar was in the
living room. Then you had to wash the cup in our bathroom as the second bath was being renovated too!
I’m a detail person and thought I had done pretty well organizing and coordinating this project until I got a call from
John one day at work. He wanted to know if the oven that was to be installed was suppose to have a steam option. It
had been picked out months before, but I knew it did, now that he mentioned it. Well, it’s a good thing the plumber was
there, because it works best with water available and I hadn’t put that on the task list for Norm the Plumber (not Joe the
Plumber).
Oh my, I just saw John with a drill. Makes me very nervous, but I will try to continue on as my corner is due!! Why
does it make me nervous? Well, it’s like this. What they say about red heads not having any patience is unfortunately
true. Add to that mix the fact that men don’t read directions and it’s a pretty explosive situation. You soon start hearing
those words people say when things go wrong. Then you get blamed for buying something so impossible to install!!
Haven’t been able to convince him that I don’t buy things with the sole intent of putting him over the edge, that I was
not a design engineer for the manufacturer causing his blood pressure to elevate and that approaching things calmly usu-
ally helps things to go smoother. He’s smart enough to do things around the house, it’s just that red hair!! Thankfully
he is patient with the ―girls‖, including me at times, compiling newsletters and making opener trades!
Overall everything turned out very well. We feel like we were very fortunate. We knew the man who built the cabinets,
and he recommended the tile and granite man and the crew that stains the cabinets, so I just had to find an electrician
and call our plumber and all the tradesmen were in place and worked great together.
My wish was for it to be done by Christmas and it was basically done at 1:30 December 24th, except for a few things like
the under counter lights that had not come in.
The dogs did really well, even though their entire sleep schedule was disturbed by workmen in the house. It was nerve
racking to leave them in our new kitchen when we had to return to work after the holidays as long after puppy chew-
ing,they suddenly chewed a piece of furniture when some other workmen were here in the spring. So we leave about a
dozen nyla bones with them each morning. When John comes home, Snazzy carries each one back to the living room,
one by one. It must be a sight to see her as she is so proud when she has a bone or toy in her mouth and parades by just

prancing with her tail held high.
John was suppose to take over cooking in the new kitchen. I do give him credit for being the first to use the new oven,
making some excellent corn bread, but that’s about the extent of it. Haven’t tried my famous banana pudding that I
made for JFO 1989 and 1990 yet. But I did take my banana pudding pan to the appliance showroom when I was picking
out things to make sure that precious pan fits.
Well, I need to walk the dogs as John is working on the newsletter today, between checking out football scores. Since it
is the 2nd week of January and not cold, I can manage that.
Now it is time to start preparing for a trip to Troy, Michigan where we hope to see lots of JFO friends. John would like
to see some rare openers too!! So stay well, get your vehicles ready for the trip as time does go quickly now and we are
looking forward to this year. John hopes nothing else happens and he will be feeling much better than last year.
Footnote – bring lots of money, John needs to pay for this kitchen somehow!!

Corkscrews, Cabernet & Colonial Williamsburg
From several countries in Europe, Brazil, Canada and the U.S., 33 members of the In-
ternational Correspondence of Corkscrew Addicts (ICCA) gathered in Williamsburg on
Oct. 1 – 5 to for their annual meeting. Founded in 1974 by notable corkscrew collectors
as Brother Timothy of the Christian Bros. Winery in California and Dr. Bernard Wat-
ney, grandson of the founder of Guinness Brewery in England, this group meets annu-
ally somewhere in the world. Recent meetings have been held in Sydney, Australia, Alaska/Inside Passage Cruise and
last year in Vienna/ Budapest. Membership in the ICCA is limited to 50 members worldwide and new membership is
based on recommendations by 3 current members.
The 2008 program started on Oct. 1 with a Tour/Tasting and dinner at the Williamsburg Winery (Virginia’s largest win-
ery) where the members tasted 12 different Virginia wines, welcomed 3 new members and used the antique and new
corkscrews to open the wines. The corkscrew group toured the Jamestown Settlement, Yorktown and the Yorktown
Victory Center on Thursday Oct. 2 which was a memorable experience for all the members. Christiana Campbell’s Tav-
ern was the scene for a colonial style dinner with several Virginia wines.
On Friday, Oct. 3, the members visited Colonial Williamsburg with a trip down Duke of Gloucester St, (a stop at
Chowning’s Tavern with its famous corkscrew logo sign) (pic 1), the Governor’s Palace, and lunch on at the King’s
Arms Tavern. In the Governor’s Palace, a very rare early 18th Century English double hinge folding pocket corkscrew
was noted in the dinning room. Completing the day was a presentation on the third president of the U.S.-Thomas Jeffer-
son- by Colonial Williamsburg’s re-enactor William Barker. He spoke as Thomas Jefferson, 3rd President of the U.S. on
current issues in the early 1800’s and then discussed his wine and travel experiences in France from 1784-89. The ques-
tion and answer period was truly enjoyed by all members. Following the presentation, Paul Luchsinger, meeting host
presented Thomas Jefferson/Bill Barker with a ―Thomas Jefferson Tribute corkscrew‖, a limited edition corkscrew (35
corkscrews) (pic 2) created for this year’s meeting. This special mold corkscrew in darkened brass closely replicates
what Thomas Jefferson would have used in the late 1700’s during his stay in France and his residence in the White
House. Original research on the corkscrew design was completed by ICCA member Dr. Bert Giulian who published a
book---―Corkscrews of the 18th Century‖. Following the Jefferson speech and ―tribute corkscrew‖ presentation was a
Jefferson Vineyards wine tasting by Chad Zakaib, general manager of Jefferson Vineyards. Five wines were tasted
ranging from a Jefferson Pinot Grigio to a special release Jefferson 1998 Cabernet Sauvignon wine. It was a splendid
day of Jefferson history and wine.
Saturday Oct 4, was the day for serious corkscrew buying, selling at auction and a members’ exhibit of rare and unusual
corkscrews. Over $30,000 of corkscrews were traded or sold during the session.
Member exhibits included the first corkscrew ever patented by the U.S. government in 1860—the Philos Blake patent
and valued at over $10,000; less than 10 are known to exist. Paul Luchsinger (left in pic 3) admires the 2 P.Blake patent
corkscrews (pic 4) displayed by John Morris (right in pic 3) of Chattanooga, TN. Another member exhibited early 19th
century English design patent corkscrews such as C. Hull’s 1864 single lever Royal Club corkscrew, rack and pinion
design corkscrews and early double lever corkscrews.
A special and unique display by a Pennsylvania member was a rarely seen display of Knife-Pistols with a corkscrew
trigger. The 6 different knife pistols in the exhibit (pic 5), each with a corkscrew trigger were designed both for use as a
conventional weapon and also as a burglar alarm device (the latter use would be to set up as an alarm device with the
―corkscrew trigger‖ screwed into a door jam and the knife pistol would be loaded with a blank charge). Upon opening
the door, the pistol would fire and alert the owner of an intruder. And yes, the corkscrew trigger could be used to pull a
cork too.

International Correspondence of Corkscrew Addicts (I C C A) Annual Meeting Williamsburg VA, October 1-5, 2008 by Paul Luchsinger
The Saturday evening banquet for the ICCA members and wives included a final salute to Virginia wineries with 5
wines from 4 wineries. A sixth wine, served with the dessert course offered special memories to 5 members present at
the banquet. The ICCA members met in 1984 in the Bordeaux Region of France and visited one of Thomas Jefferson’s
favorite wineries that still exists today –Chateau d’Yquem. Host Paul Luchsinger, later in the 1990’s, purchased a bottle
of the 1984 vintage and stored it in his wine cellar for a special occasion. In 2008, the occasion happened and the 1984
Chateau d’Yquem bottle was opened with the special ―Thomas Jefferson Tribute‖ corkscrew. The 5 members from the
1984 meeting assisted Paul Luchsinger in opening the bottle. The assessment of the wine by all members—―simply deli-
cious!‖. The members agreed that Thomas Jefferson (3rd President) would have agreed too.
The ICCA members departed from Williamsburg on Sunday Oct 5,
with many memories of Corkscrews, Cabernet, Colonial Williams-
burg and a tribute corkscrew likely to have been used by Thomas
Jefferson. The next ICCA event is an online corkscrew auction end-
ing Nov. 16, 2008. The first auction in May 2008 drew 300 cork-
screw collectors with 200 corkscrews selling for a total exceeding
$100,000. The November Auction can be viewed at
www.auction.icca-corkscrew.com

cluding a copy of the ICCA’s most recent publication—Bottle Scrue

Eifel Multitool
Joe Young got this piece on eBay. There is an obvious opener, screw driver, wrench of some kind and something else at the opposite end. (Weird) The stamping is interesting:
Eifel Multitool Made in USA
Price 15¢ Pat. Appld For Chicago, ILL
American Plierench Co.
The company also made other interesting wrenches. The pat-entee was Joseph Eifel (from Chicago) -- no relation to the Eifel of tower fame that I know of :-) Have you seen anything like it? It's not a beer, but it's sure different.

It seems like I have been complaining for a long time that
eBay had been slowing down and very few really good
items were being offered for sale each quarter. I ate my
words this quarter as the eBay results are the most I have
ever recorded. There was quantity and quality. A couple
of collections (Bob McNary’s and Eric Bittner’s) were on
the market along with some smaller or partial collections
highlighted by Bill McKienzie’s Colorado openers offered
by his wife, Elvie. Maybe the economy is forcing people
to sell and who knows how long it will last but lets enjoy
eBay having lots of nice openers for sale.
Leading off the ―A‖ types was a mint A-1-79 Tahoe (from
Carson City, NV) bringing $179.49. It was offered by Jim
Pfaff who was selling a small collection of mostly nice
West Coast beer openers. Any pre-pro beer opener from
Nevada is desirable and this A-1 proved that point. Out of
the McKienzie collection was a mint A-4-61 Tivloi, the
first I have seen offered for sale and it sold for $136.49.
The top selling A-4 was a UL Blatz from Seward, Ne. and
it brought $152.59. Remember as a rule quality always
brings good results and the above three were great openers.
There were numerous good ―A‖s sold this past quarter and
anyone interested in collecting bottle openers should have
bought something as there were a lot of bargains also.
―B‖s were led off with another great opener from the Bill
McKienzie Collection, a B-5-10 Columbine, which brought
$169.49. A serious Colorado collector ended up with many
of the good openers Elvie sold on eBay. Rumor has it that
this B-5-10 was once owned by Norm Jay who traded it to
Bill for a $40.00 opener (many years ago). You never
know for sure how things will turn out. One that went out
of sight was a B-13-63 Glennons. It was sold with a C-13-
50 Glennons but the C-13 has been sold a few times for
decent money but this lot bringing $352.00 was a real eye
opener and I assumed the two top bidders were chasing the
B-13. On the somewhat moderate side I was surprised the
a B-18-UL Otoe Brewing from Nebraska City, Ne. only
brought $79.66. A really small brewery and I have not
seen any kind of advertising from this brewery before. I
assume Nebraska openers are not as ―hot‖ as they were at
previous times. The Bill McKienzie parade continued with
a nice B-29-2 Budweiser bringing $169.49. Another result
to note was a nice B-32 Coca-Cola Pacific Bottling Works
bringing $233.99. Who said there is a recession going on?
The fun continued in the ―C‖ category with a C-1-3
Schoenhofen in excellent condition bringing $216.49. The
rarity in this one, its black paint on brass. I have never
seen a brass version. Have any of the members seen one or
have one in their collections? Cigar Box Openers had sev-
eral nice examples sold but overall prices were on the low
side. This may be a category that many collectors chase
after but like most anything there are a lot of great varia-
tions. Cast iron or ―D‖ types were led by who else but an-
other Bill McKienzie UL, a D-8 C A Lammers Bottling
Co, Denver. It brought $136.49 and like most of Bill’s
other Colorado openers was in great condition. Another
McKienzie opener, an E-17-2 Mile High brought $170.49,
and led the ―E‖ category. Are you seeing a trend with
Bill’s openers. This was just his Colorado collection but a
good many rare and hard to find openers were in it and
most were in outstanding condition. As I pointed out to a
couple of JFO members, it will be a cold day in H___ when
you see three E-23s for sale the same week on Bay and that
is exactly what happened this past quarter. Of course it
was another McKienzie opener leading the way at $56.00,
an E-23-2 Capitol. Finally in the ―E‖s I thought I might get
lucky and get a New Discovery ―E‖ when I bought the E-
UL-UL Mount Carbon (sorry Ben for beating you out), but
Larry Moter gave me a lecture that he has had one for years
and I just told him it was an E-2. It is a cross between and
E-1 and E-2 and yes I will give Larry credit for ―finding
it‖ (see pictures).
A couple of Coca-Cola openers headed the ―F‖ class. A F-
6 Coca-Cola & Orange Crush bringing $108.00 and a new
style kitchen tool with a triangular spatula selling for
$161.28. Figural bottle openers saw a few nice examples
sell and one interesting one was a Dale Deckert ―repro‖ of
the All American (#38) and it sold for $61.41. Dale found
out reproducing them was not that hard but getting a nice
paint job was the tough part. ―G‖s saw one interesting re-
sult, a G-21-1 K I K Malt bringing $104.49. The G-21
Northampton turns up fairly often but the other G-21s are
all hard to come by. I bought what looked like an H-2 Fink
Brewing for $13.00 but it is really a new Discovery as it
has a milk bottle opener added (see pictures). Jumping to
the ―K‖s, they were highlighted by a repainted K-2-9 Lone
Star bringing $169.49. The K-2-9 is probably the most
desirable K-2 to own as far as rarity and demand are con-
cerned.
―L-2‖s, what can I say, enough A-B ones have sold this
year for every JFO member to receive one (actually it
would take 2 years). In any event it is astounding how
many of these Williamson Mfg. Co. made. For ―M‖ types
a nice M-2-20 Bola sold for $138.99. Not bad considering
how hard it is to find M-1s and M-2s in real nice condition
―Opener and eBay Trivia‖
PAGE 15 JUST FOR OPENERS JAN 2009 ISSUE #121
especially ones with bottles. We finally get to ―the M-3‖, a
M-3-42 Seitz in super condition was bought by Art John-
son ―to complete his beer M-3 collection‖! The price
speaks for itself, second one known (first had no paint),
great condition and the only orange colored beer advertis-
ing slider known. Congratulations Art and for those won-
dering, one of his sons has claimed the collection when Art
passes on to ―M-3 Heaven‖. Three M-73s all brought in
the $200.00 price range, a Missoula, a Becker/Budweiser
and a Hotel Gowman Seattle and all in nice condition. I
will end the ―M‖s with a Bill McKienzie Colorado opener,
the very desirable M-6-2 Hamm’s sold for $202.51. The
second one sold on eBay and like a lot of Bill’s openers
very hard to find.
―N‖ types like other categories saw lots of good examples
sold but nothing eye catching though I am sure Mike ―The
Truck Driver‖ Krejci was happy to get the N-43-UL Schlitz
& Fort Pitt for $116.49. The knife was one of the many
nice openers and corkscrews (many unlisted) from the col-
lection of Eric Bittner. The ―O‖s or wall mounts were
highlighted by an O-5 Beaufont Ginger Ale, first being
bought for $30.00 on a Buy-It-Now and then resold for
$200.00. The third example I have tracked on eBay and all
three have sold in the $200.00 price range. One other ―O‖
notable was a O-8 Coca-Cola Bottling Co from Peoria, Il.
bringing $224.72. Good Coca-Cola openers are still
strong. Many good Starr openers sold and prices seemed to
have leveled off and definitely much lower than the 2000
year boom times.
Many Anheuser-Busch knives sold this past quarter. I will
comment first that the 1952 P-25-3 version with the plastic
looking handles sold several times with a couple being sold
in the $400.00 range. A lot of these were recently found,
beware! Probably about a $100.00 knife with so many of-
fered in the market place. A P-26-UL Anheuser-Busch
―Flag‖ knife was the top seller at $1,720.00. As the news-
letter is being sent out in January, a P-71-1 Budweiser in
fair condition that sold for $1,313.00 and the buyer did not
pay up, so it is being offered again on eBay. A P-71-2
Budweiser knife in good condition sold for $455.00 five
years ago. This P-71-1 has a missing Stanhope, missing
blades and the corkscrew has half of it broken off. A filler
piece and amazing to think it went for the price it did the
first time. Bob Sudduth bought a very interesting political
P-26 knife having the Chicago political name of Christ Jen-
sen (1920s). The knife had a stanhope and was in great
shape which led to the selling price being $698.00. Once
again many nice beer corkscrews or ―P‖s sold.
―R‖ or 3-D figural types saw some activity with the notable
item being a R-6-2 Kaier selling on a Buy-It-Now for
$600.00. It was in average condition. Something you do
not see sold very often were a pair of S-2-1 Pabst special
opening cans with the original carton. They sold for
$229.27 and certainly a very unusual style for a bottle
opener. General corkscrews were somewhat active as the
ICCA Corkscrew Auctions seem to be taking over for
eBay’s auctions. Very good activity for corkscrews but the
highlight which I pulled from the ICCA Auction results
was a 1882 Pitt Patent bringing $9,000.00. A rare bird for
U. S. patent collectors. Finally in honor of the trucker, a
Hard Rock café opener eBay result is shown for the first
time, and in fact it was a lot of 61 different which sold for
$662.00. Who says new stuff is ―Crap‖?
Next stop on the show schedule is Blue-Gray in February
in Fredericksburg, Va. It will be interesting to see if people
are buying and just how much good stuff will be offered
for sale. A report will follow in the April JFO. In either
event get your stuff ready, Troy, Mi. is just around the cor-
ner. Lots of great openers and corkscrews for sale and
trade. One bright part to the ―recession‖, gas is cheap! Be
there!
Speaking of great openers and corkscrews at the JFO Con-
vention, last year in St. Louis I had two boxes of openers
sitting on the coffee table every day of the convention.
Among the many ―miscellaneous‖ items were three M-28-1
Coors folding can openers in leather pouches. Twenty
years ago it was considered a ―tough‖ type but now many
examples have turned up. So no one bought any of the
three which were included in a pile bought on eBay.
The month after the convention, I get a visit from Dave
Pinney and his girlfriend and he is going through the two
boxes and picks one of the M-28-1s to buy. He had a small
pile of openers and nothing too expensive. I knew I had
one non-beer M-28 so I opened the leather pouch and about
passed out when this one has a corkscrew swiveling around
with the opener. M-28s with a corkscrew are much tougher
to find than without and I had never seen a beer one until
now. It was a ―New Discovery‖ as I told Dave that I had
meant to set that one aside after St. Louis. Sorry Dave but
I had never checked them when I got them and could not
believe a Coors ad one had a corkscrew. I gave him one of
the other two for $5.00 (Norm likes it when I say ―I gave‖
someone an opener). I have been collecting 30 years and
still do not take the time to check things carefully.
