Description

This lot contains four miniature bottles of Private Stock 6 Year Old Kentucky straight bourbon whiskey. We estimate these were bottled in the 1960s to 1970s:

1 x Engel's Deluxe 6 Year Old Kentucky straight bourbon whiskey specially bottled for Ray & Fran Engel, Crivitz, Wis., 4.7cl, 43% ABV

1 x Milt's 6 Year Old Special Reserve Charcoal Filtered Kentucky straight bourbon whiskey bottled specially for Milt's Liquor Stores, Ripon, Wisconsin, 4.7cl, no ABV stated

1 x Needle 6 Year Old Charcoal Filtered Kentucky straight bourbon whiskey bottled specially for Elmer W Schmidt West Allis, Wisconsin, 4.7cl, 43% ABV

1 x Private Stock Genuine 6 Year Old Kentucky straight bourbon whiskey distilled and bottled by The Old Joe Distillery. This was specially bottled for Milw J BB & S Club, Milwaukee, Wis, 4.7cl, 43% ABV

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.
