    Description

    Up
    for auction is a beautiful colored 1960s whiskey type flask with a definite
    citron hue color to the glass.
    This example is crude with a few large bubbles in glass and
    stretch
    marks in neck and also has a
    crudely
    applied lip. Base is
    characteristic
    1860s style as well. The bottle bottle stands 7 3/8" tall. There is also
    what's
    left of the paper label. Reads:
    JOHNSON & BRO / NEW HAVEN, CONN.
    You can also make out other aspects of the remaining label as well. Now, for the way I found this bottle in an attic barn. The butterfly porcelain stopper???  you see in some pictures was already  in the neck of the bottle. If it is indeed a closure it must have tightened up in the neck at some point, but no longer does. I am assuming its original to the bottle, but cannot be sure. There is some
    dried
    spot
    remnants
    inside, but I don't want to fool with it as to hurt what is left of the paper label. This is really quite a bottle, and I just could not
    capture
    fully its color in real time. There are no cracks or chips or damage to the glass.
    THE BOTTLE IS EMPTY and CONTAINS NO ALCOHOL
