You can make some nice displays this way. My concern is stuff like this often unintentionally finds its way into the market place. It would be good if you could mark them so collectors wouldnt be fooled years down the road. I would suggest putting the current date on the back of the label in pencil before you stick it on the bottle. You would be able to see the date looking through the back of the bottle but it wouldnt adversly affect the display from the front. And unscroupulous people wouldnt be able to remove the date without removing the label.

There are almost always nice old labels on fleabay, often fairly cheap.
