I found a clear Old Mr. Boston bottle embossed with "Federal Law Forbids Sale or Re-use of This Bottle" and a picture of a man with a tophat.  The bottom has R174 and the second is 54-6.  Could you please tell us more about this bottle as we are new to collecting?  Thanks!

Liquor bottles with the "Federal Law Forbids.." embossing date from 1933 to 1964. I see lots of Old Mr. Boston bottles in dumps from the 1930s. I have seen several different styles. They are cool-looking bottles, but quite common. ~Jim
