John D. Jackson III's Corkscrew Story.

Posted: 03/08/2021

My story about antique corkscrews is as follows:  First, being from New Orleans, LA, I was familiar with antiques.  New Orleans is one of the oldest cities in the USA.  I also like history so antiques are interesting to me.

 

I was first bitten by the antique corkscrew bug while in Houston, TX in 2015 because I heard about an antique convention where some of the proceeds went to charity.  I wanted to check it out.  While walking around, I met two antique dealers that also sold antique corkscrews.  I was fascinated by these antique corkscrews and purchased some.  My interest grew when I started reading about the different corkscrew manufactures, designs, construction and patents.

 

My interest in quality antique corkscrews grows stronger today.
