Vintage 1960s Weller's Antique Reserve 110-Proof Gold Vein Empty Whiskey Bottle
***VERY RARE BOTTLE, PRE-DATES ANTIQUE 107 PROGRAM BY A DECADE!!***
In the 1960s, the fine folks at Stitzel-Weller in Shively, Kentucky created something special, which would eventually become a flagship bourbon: Weller's Antique 107. But it started as this: Weller’s Reserve 10-Year-Old (110-proof) Barrel Proof Straight Bourbon Whiskey.
They decided to kick it up a notch by featuring it in their famous “gold vein” bottle, then went on to package it beautifully. The bottle originally had a foil-wrapped cork top, yellow velvet bag, box, and paper labels on the front and back (see historical photos at end of listing). What remains here for sale today is *JUST* the bottle with part of the front label still intact, as well as the state of Georgia sales tax sticker.
PLEASE READ: The last 3 photos are for HISTORICAL REFERENCE ONLY AND NOT PART OF THIS LISTING...I wanted you to see what this bottle looked like as produced in the mid 1960s. You are buying ONLY the empty bottle shown in most of the photos...if you are lucky enough to own the bottle shown in that condition, congrats - you have about $6,000 on your hands!
Vintage preowned condition as shown. The bottle itself is nice with no chips nor cracks, and part of the original cork inside at the bottom. The top front of the bottle is a bit embellished over the label, to draw attention to it. A COOL SURVIVOR OF KENTUCKY BOURBON HERITAGE!
Selling as-is with no returns, so kindly ask before offerding if you have any questions.
***TAKE A GOOD LOOK! Outstanding addition to a serious Weller’s collection, for the lover of all things related to Kentucky bourbon history, or for a bottle collector.***
Careful packing and fast shipping. Thanks, God bless, and make it a GREAT day! ;0)
