The very straight neck leads me to believe repro if I remember what Steve has said in may of his posts regarding these flasks. Hopefully someone more knowledgable will know for sure...

Agreed, still a nice shelf or window piece though
...and worthy of a little more info like what's embossed on it, what's the back, bottom and top look like.
"???" tells me nothing more than I want to know the rest. It could be a very worthwhile piece regardless.

Sheared top. Smooth base.

"WITH MALICE TOWARDS NONE" around Lincoln's portrait.

"WITH CHARITY TOWARDS ALL"around log cabin on back.

No other identifying marks.

Any guesses at value?

I have a similar flask that I picked up at a yard sale a couple years ago for a couple bucks. I did some research but did not find anything like it. It does not have any "Wheaton" or "Clevenger" markings. I always thought it was just some type of reproduction. Still a neat looking bottle.

Thanks!
Jeff
