Hello All, We found this great Goethe 'Faust' Metal Book Bar at an estate sale in Maryland this past weekend. Inside the Book are three bottles, two with labels and 1 without. The first bottle reads: Monchslikor Hartwig Kantorowicz AG Berlin 1823 42 Vol%, the second reads: Gold-Orange Hartwig Kantorowicz A.G. Berlin 1823 40Vol%. I spent all weekend trying to learn about this set but have had little luck. Anyone have any knowledge? Thank you,Amanda

That's cool but I can't help you, I've never seen anything like it. There is a name for lock box liquor things but I can't remember what it is and don't know if that meats the definition.

I think you're looking for the word Tantalus my friend...

Yes Jim, thanks. I don't know if this quite fits that but that was the word I wanted.
