Anyone for 1870 Hiram Walkers Whiskey ?

Well the crawling under the house continues... I have found several bottles of Walkers half full ... the bottles are corked .. the liquior seems to have thicken some .. :) The only way I could tell it was walkers was the "W" on the bottom .. and I live about 1/2 mile from the warehouses ...

Our new old house - crawl space suprise

We recently purchased my wifes great grandfathers original homestead.. under the crawl space all along the foundation..were hundreds of old bottles... I found this site looking for info on a vinol bottle... few of them have names on them.. but the neatest find was an old wood Walkerville...
