    Description

    Offering ...
    an old historic vintage, amber glass, made by "
    GREEN RIVER
    ". This liquor bottle bears the notice "Federal Law Forbids Sale or Reuse of this Bottle", embossed on the side.  This law was in existence because of prohibition, and no longer exists today. The law required that once liquor was emptied from this bottle, the bottle was to be destroyed.  The law (and this bottle) dates back from 1935-1964.  All bottles produced after this law was repealed, no longer bear this notice. Also embossed in large lettering is "GREEN RIVER" just below the neck. Underneath is embossed "D9 13 41 M-25 SB 17A".
    Use as a bar accessory and add a bit of Mad Men Decor to your home bar. This bottle is free of chips and/or cracks. May find blemishes and imperfections on the glass consistent with age. Could benefit from a good cleaning. Cleaning will be left to the new owner. Sold as is and as seen in photos.
