Schenley's Black Label Bottled 1930s-1940s 4.7cl

A bottle of Schenley's Black Label blended American whiskey. This was blended and bottled by Jos S Finch & Co. Inc., a division of Schenley Products Company. We estimate this was bottled in the 1930s to 1940s.

The back label reads: The straight whiskies in this product are 2 1/2 years or more old. 40% straight whiskey, 60% grain neutral spirits. Distilled from American grains 25% straight whiskey 2 1/2 years old, 5% straight whiskey 5 years old, 10% straight whiskey 6 years old.

Please note, there is no size or ABV stated on the label.

This lot comes from the extensive collection of a Merseyside collector who began his hobby with bottles bought for guests as digestifs at private dinner parties in the early 1970s. His interest led to him advertising in the UK national newspapers, and buying and selling bottles as far afield as Australia, America and Ireland, with his last significant addition being a collection he purchased from Stoke On Trent in 1984.
