I love your bottle very much. Looked it up and found some, like this one:

thank you Martika! hard to believe that mine is 1937! that isn't right, in my opinion.
ho2cultcha, this is so beautiful, I love the Green colour too.
For sure in my opinion this is very collectable, some people have liquor bottles collection from all over the world, you did very well for $2.
Regards
Alan
Here is another with much better info:

thank you Alan and Martika! here's the info, which sounds pretty accurate to me: This is such a cool bottle! This is the second one I have been lucky enough to find. This bottle was handmade in Mexico and played a large role in the global distribution of Kahlua in the 1950's. The date on the bottle is 1937, but that is the original patent date of Kahlua, not the bottle.
The label on this piece is still present, but it is stained. There is a piece of the tax tariff sticker still present. This item is in great condition with no cracks. There is an irregularity at the base of the piece, but i cannot tell if it happened during or after production, please see the photos. There is a hole on the underside of the hands, but this is present on all of these bottles. This bottle stands just short 11.5 inches tall and 4 inches wide at the base. The stopper is still present.
