Hi,
I am new to collecting and recently acquired a large lot of bottles from an estate auction in PA. I have this one that I was wondering about, does anyone know around what time the bottle was produced? The seam does run all the way up the side right to underneath the lip. It reads "Bells" across the front, on the backside it reads "Federal Law Forbids Sale or Re Use of This Bottle "and on the bottom of the bottle it says
ARTHUR BELL & SONS LTD
KX 268
PERTH SCOTLAND
U G B
BOTTLE MADE IN SCOTLAND  
The bottle is brown glass. I know it is a whiskey bottle of some sort from what little I could find. I'm not crazy about the bottle, is it worth holding on to it? I'm guessing anywhere between 1930's to 1970's? Thanks in advance!

Hi Heather and welcome to the forum.
Your bottle probably held Scotch Whiskey.
Very little monetary value to the antique bottle collector.
Keep looking, though, you'll never know what you'll find.
