I found this bottle in my grandparent's attic, but they do not know anything about it.  Any information at all would be very much appreciated!

Label reads: 

INDIAN TRADER

WHISKEY - A BLEND

FRANKFORT DISTILLERS INCORPORATED

I've never heard of that brand but I can tell you a little about the bottle. It is a machine made screw top bottle which dates it after about 1910. And since it does not have FEDERAL LAW FORBIDS... embossed that means it is from before Prohibition which started in 1919. So that narrows it down to the 19teens. Value of the bottle would be almost nothing but with the interesting label I would guess $10 - 20.

They stopped using the Federal Law Prohibits embossing in the 1960's, I believe, so the bottle could be from around then... It certainly doesn't look like a 1910's whiskey to me. Just my guess.

You may be right, Wheelah. It doesn't look pre-1920 to me either but with that ring on the bottom it does not look 1970 either. And the label looks kind of old but that might just be because it is dirty. Anyway, I wouldn't throw it away because the label is kind of interesting.

Since the "Federal law...." was first put on bottles in 1932, I think it would be safe to assume it dates from the late 20's-early 30's. Doesn't really look like it was made after 1964.
