Description
Schenley Reserve Whiskey Pre war bottle iron advertising display Antique standOf course no liquor. This is extremely rare and in excellent condition for age.
Has one flea bite chip on screw top and a tiny small piece of label missing on front and no top.
I only lightly wiped with very damp cloth on iron and bottle but did not touch labels.
Weighs a heavy 5 pounds.
I could not find another of this in exhaustive search. This would be a special addition to an advertising collection.
Just over 14" tall and the round area that says "Enjoy Schenley for sunny morning flavor" is just over 3" in diameter.
Bottled after WWII but liquor was aged Prior in the 1940s
