PLEASE SEE THE MANY PHOTOS I'VE TAKEN OF THIS BOTTLE, THEY CAN BE FOUND BELOW THIS DESCRIPTION AND CAN BE ENLARGED!
In this auction I am pleased to offer this empty, old, vintage whiskey bottle, but a little disappointed it has gotten paint on it at some point...not by me!
I found this in the rafters of my home that was built in 1926 by a judge in our city. WOW, seems by the appearance of this bottle that our town really was rough back then! Of course, it was known as "sin city" back in the day...Calumet City, IL,
I know everyone says Al Capone was in their town at some point but he truly had connections here and owned bars on State Street...all well documented!
I have a friend that actually lives in one of his henchman's Flagstone homes...complete with an underground tunnel to the house across the street, now sealed due to laws against it, not to mention the her and her neighbor barely know one another...wouldn't want to find someone in your basement that doesn't belong there...awkward! But, apparently it was a nice convenience back then for quick getaways!!!!
Anyway, just sharing a little provenance of the bottle and the area it comes from!
It is as you see in the photos...no damage to the bottle or the label on the back but the front does have green paint, and I cannot budge the cap off...so please take that into consideration when bidding!
If there is anything else I can tell you about the bottle, please contact me!
If you have any other questions please write me and I will happily and promptly get back to you with an answer.
