Southern Comfort Bottled 1970s-1980s 2 x 5cl

This lot contains two bottles of Southern Comfort, The Grand Old Drink Of The South. We estimate these were bottled in the 1970s to early 1980s.

Southern Comfort was originally created in 1874 by bartender Martin Wilkes Heron as a softer alternative to whiskey and bourbon.

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.
