Pernod Fils Absinthe Bottle

[Sam_MaineBottles]

Hi Folks -

I have a 12 inch olive green Pernod Fils bottle that I thought I'd share with you. It is a turn mold with a laid on ring lip, a Pernod Fils shoulder seal, a 2.5 inch kick up base and two 2+ inch enclosed bubbles.

According to this website

http://www.oxygenee.com/absintheBOTTLES1.html

it is an absinthe bottle from Paris (there is a picture of this style bottle on the site with label).

I din't collect this type of bottle and figured I would take it to the NEABC show in April - question is, what is a fair price for something like this? Any input appreciated.

Thanks - Sam

The laid on ring with the only damage to the bottle, a small lip flake.

And here's the kick-up base.

These bottles didnt contain absinthe im afraid ,,but did contain an aniseed flavoured spirit ,,it is still sold today in the UK
Pernod i think was a French company ,we also dig a few of these sealed types

Pernod is an aperitif'. It is used as an appetizer. Supposed to make you more hungry and able to enjoy your meal better. Nasty if you ask me.[:'(]
