Abe Lincoln? flask/bottle - 9/16/2010 9:09:40 PM    cubby01   Posts: 12 Joined: 8/4/2010 Status: offline Is this Abe? And I saw in an old 2005 post that this bottle is an Italian repro. (Whiskyman post here http://www.antique-bottles.net/forum/fb.asp?m=31333&key=lincoln%2Citalian ) Repro of what? When was it made? And lastly any value at all to it? The lady I bought mine from said she'd had it for over 40 years. That's about all I know. Many thanks, -Buck < Message edited by cubby01 -- 9/16/2010 9:13:28 PM > Post #: 1
