Status: offline Well, I dont know how old this line of whiskey is as I have never seen an old one.  But, I have never seen one like this either.  May be worth some just because of it's size and such.  I'm thinking it was made for parties or an advertising piece.   _____________________________ Poison Us Member: APBCA ( www.poisonbottleclub.org ) Visit Us @: www.poisonousaddiction.com Looking for digging partners in/near Savannah.

If you like it and felt it was worth it to you then that is what it is worth, I say display and enjoy it....Jim _____________________________ Paterson NJ Bottles I Want Them! AKA Contest Winner !

RE: One Gallon Early Times with metal stand.... - 7/12/2010 9:08:14 PM    RED Matthews Posts: 2263 Joined: 8/2/2008 Status: offline Well here I go again:   These are usually referred to as ADVERTISING BOTTLES.  These small ones usually had a pouring stand and were picked up by many home bar people.  The old ones usually are at about $ 50 value in shops. The liquor companies also had big ADVERTISING BOTTLES made to set in Liquor Store Windows.  I was involved with making many of the molds for them.  They were often 30" high.  They even made large labels for them and put a cap on them.  They never filled them with liquid.  They were just put in the store windows to entice the women customers to take their husbands favorite liquid home.  I think I have about two dozen of these "BIG BOTTLES".  I have sold some at bottle shows and they will go for $ 100 to $ 300 depending on how bad someone wants one.  Mine are all for sale if you want one or more.  It is interesting to point out that these big ones were made on a three station machine where the parison was formed in the first station, the parison was expanded in the next mold station and the bottle was blown in the final mold station.
