    Here's the 'set' of decanters purchased last weekend because they had the 5 matching pewter hangtags on them. (which I showed last evening, in this post:)

    https://www.collectorsweekly.com/stories/249782-5pc-stieff-pewter-liquor-decanter-tags?in=user

    The three matching ones are about 3-1/2" square and 9-3/4" tall. Each one has a flat 'band' across its midst on one side where a narrow label could be/was, their other sides are fully patterned. What looks like "CINBD21" and the numbers 3, 69, and 80 are molded into their bottoms.

    The fourth is about the same size, and apparently first came full of "a fifth" ;-) of Evan Williams bourbon to celebrate their 200th anniversary, having their (baked on enamel?) name, logo, and legal info on the back. Its bottom has a kinda anchor shaped "JG" logo (Anchor Hocking?) and numbers 5, 83, and (underlined) 2.

    Maybe the best part...I only paid about $12 total for the 4 bottles *and* 5 pewter tags... ;-) :-) :-) :-)

      I have several, all over the house. Most are from the 60s-70s. I have some of the round squatty ones, Brandy decanters I think they are?. $3 each is about the going rate, of course a little more on ebay.

      OOPS -- so sorry for the belated THANKS to:

      for tapping the <love it> button!! :-) :-) :-)

      Now that I've finally got the decanters home safe, I need to [get their corks unstuck &] get them cleaned up. I've little doubt they'll eventually end up looking just fine somewhere, maybe on a glass shelf with more of my assorted decanters/martini pitchers/glass barware...?? ;-) :-) :-)
