Hi everyone,
Been a while. Was able to get out and found a new (to me) spot. Picking through some surface stuff and this caught my eye. A lot of interesting details and subject matter. Any ideas about date and type. Screw top whisky flask 1942?

I don't know if that's the date code or not but it certainly looks like it dates to roughly that era. Certainly got some good detail on it!

Hi. Yes this bottle is from the 1940's. I have dug a couple of them here in Florida. I fouind them in a layer that was nearly all 1940's to 1950's range. It was from a large city dump dating from 1890's up to about 1965. Very common bottle. Very little value; ...but cool. If it was full and un-opened then you would have something! tasty.

Very helpful. Thanks everyone. Posted this a while ago on the forum. Interesting comparing the two.
