Any info on any of the bottles would be helpful!
What does the 1st bottle say on it?
*First bottle has:
FEDERAL LAW FORBIDS SALE OR RE-USE OF THIS BOTTLE
Man's Face embossed
Around bottom is 3 names: Harry E. Wilken Jr, Harry E. Wilken Sr, William T. Wilken.
Re: #4. The required use of that term was instated in 1933 after prohibition. Far from the 1st step of the federal government taking your rights away & certainly not the last.
Not sure about the age or value.
Sorry, I made a mistake & the date should be 1935 instead. That dates that bottle between then & 1964 when it was no longer required.
