Status: offline 		I have not seen any warrented flasks that would date anywhere close to Civil War era. Mike Russells book is a good reference if you want to see the types of bottle that were used during that period. Generic flaskand whiskeys at that time were often marked PATENT.

Thanks

Status: offline 		I'm not sure when they all started but it seems like possibly in the 1880s they started marking generic whiskeys with this type of markings. Warrented is the most common but there are a bunch of others. I guess there must of been a controversy over bottles that held less than the advertised amount. Heaven forbid some drunk gets shorted a sip of whiskey
