Whiskey Bottles found under floorboard - need help on one!

Great finds!

I agree that the "66" whiskey is a stunning piece, and my thoughts paralleled Asterisk80's opinion that it would sell for good money. I would cross-link it to some sort of poker/gambling related category, or parade it around poker forums and see if some hot-shot would shell out way more than it is worth.

Thanks for all the comments.

Plumbata, thanks for the ebay advice for the 66. For now its going on the shelf since its a hometown bottle for me.

TJSHART, the Saegertown was bottled in Saegertown PA. The bottom of the label isn't complete, but it has the Saegertown owner's name Frank M Fox on it.

Surfaceone, your memory is good, I did find another stash awhile back. And thank you for your efforts to to try to find out where the Choice Gin bottle is from.

The closest thing I can find for the Choice Gin mystery is on pre-pro.com. Using the search engine on their site, I tried to match variations on the monogram letters. I searched in Ohio and its five surrounding states, plus New York. The only one that may match it is Cass Sunstein & Sons of Pittsburgh, PA (1871 - 1918). Pittsburgh is about a couple hour or so drive from Cleveland, so its possible it could be this distilling company. Here's the link: http://www.pre-pro.com/midacore/view_vendor.php?vid=PIT3190

Surfaceone,

Here's a couple more photos of the 66 bottle. I thought it was GG until I saw the little back label.

Never heard of the card game "66".

Here's a link on how to play, if anyone is curious.

Thanks!

Here's a close up of the Saegertown. Sorry in advance for the bad lighting.

Odd kick up base, like a wine bottle, on this crown top bottle.

I'd say you're right on with the Choice Gin being from PA, nice sleuthing, here's the labels with a little better lighting...
