I hate to inform this gentlemen but there was never any kind of liquid beverage in these bottles originally.Jim Travis the last owner of the Clevenger brothers Glassworks made this as a joke for the Clevenger brothers to produce.This is the kind of bottle the Clevenger brothers should have been making instead of all of the deceptive suto copycat versions of originals they did.They should have created their own old style of glass focused on current in the day significant, historical, presidents ect.ect events in the 1930s and 40s and 50s.Those bottles today would be almost as collectable as the early and mid 1800s flasks.This link tells the rest of the Travis story................................. It is a nice looking bottle and is actually pretty scarce.
