Status: offline Arthur on that bottle yes the date is the second set of numbers, however around 1951 they changed the makers mark to the bottom of the bottle and the date can be either the first or second set of numbers. It's confusing but after a little while you'll be able to figure which is which. < Message edited by cc6pack -- 6/10/2008 7:44:14 PM > (in reply to arthur) Post #: 2
