    These bottles of whiskey have been in our family for a very long time.
    They were all made in 1917 & bottled in 1933. Im just a fan of these but wish i knew more about vintage whiskey. If anybody could help me learn or tell me where i could gather information that would be great. I hope you enjoy them as i do. I would also like to learn how to display them. Have a good day and any feedback is much appreciated. Thank You

      Hi Brian,

      What you have here are two prohibition era medicinal whiskey pints. The only way to get whiskey during that period was by having a prescription.

      The fill levels are typical as some evaporation has occurred through the corks.

      If you can tell me the distilleries listed on the tax strips I can tell you even more.

      Thanks for posting!
      Scott
