I found a strap side half pint whiskey flask embossed W. E. EVERETT HUNTSVILLE HOTEL BAR HUNTSVILLE, ALA. I don't know much about Alabama bottles but I suspect this may be a rare one. Anyone know anything about it? I'll take it to the Jackson Ms bottle show in Jan. Thanks.Jay

I found this bottle, as I find most of my bottles now, at an estate sale this morning. Also got a Severa Stomach Bitters, Dr Nywall's Family Medicine, a couple of local crown top sodas. The whiskey flask is the best of today's finds, I think.

Not sure, but rarity a good possibility. I like it, maybe McDirt would know?

What size is it? Duh, nevermind. Other than the stain, what kind of shape is it in?

It has some stain, typical of dug southern bottles. Other than that, no chips cracks or bruises so a pretty good specimen. I might go back to that sale tomorrow and see if I can find anything else. The outside buildings were not open today because it was raining.
