Liquor Bottle

About 20 years ago I had neighbors who were professional exterminators. They were also involved in scrap metal sales in a big way. In those days we had a county dump ground, and they'd go the dump and load up all the appliances that people had thrown away. When they got back to their home they would rip the wiring out of the old junked stuff and then burn it in order to get at the copper wire.

Anyway, they found quite a bit of other stuff in their wild pursuit of copper, and this bottle was one thing they found. I don't know if it's really a whiskey bottle. It is definitely a liquor bottle, for it says so on the bottom. It also says it is a collectible, but that's all the information on the bottle.

How did I get this bottle? Stole it, of course. No, I didn't really steal it. Eventually the man of the house passed away and the extermination business closed. His good wife followed him into eternity a few years later and her brother inherited the old business and their land. He promptly tore the old business down and had a garage sale. Since I was a next door neighbor and had eyed this and other bottles through the window for years, he let me have it. Sadly he also passed away (2007) at the young age of 92.
