I've been holding on to this Farmdale Burbon Whiskey bottle for over a year while trying numerous times to find any info about it out on the internet. Finally, one occurrence of one being sold popped up, so it must be either rare or people don't want to part with them.
The info that I found said it is from right around the year 1900, give or take a couple of years. That one did not have a cap and it sold for $42. So, based on that, I was asking $26 but have discounted it 50% due to an upcoming out of state move. That should make it a bargain for the lucky buyer.
The bottle measures about 8 inches tall without the cap, 3.75 inches side to side, and 1.75 inches front to back. It is dark amber glass. One side has a farm scene of mountains, fields, a stream, and a farm house. In raised letters it says "Farmdale Bourbon Whiskey". The other side is blank except for the number 2 towards the bottom, and has a very slight recessed area where a label would have been applied. The bottom says "Vancouver Canada".
About the lid.... I'm not sure this is the original lid, but it's what was on it when I purchased the bottle at an estate sale. I believe the lid is aluminum or tin. The top of the lid says "For Connoisseurs" and then something else that I can't make out. The lid is a bit crusty, which I'll leave for the new owner.
The bottle is fairly clean inside with little traces of dust or dirt. I do not have a bottle brush, so I'll leave that also for the new owner.
SPECIAL SHIPPING CHARGE NOTICE -
Delivery will be by USPS Priority Mail. Google will not correctly include items in their search pages unless they show an actual dollar amount for the shipping cost. The cost that I am stating is for delivery from Arizona to the east coast. If you are not located on the east coast, your cost may be less. I'll be happy to refund a portion of my stated costs should you overpay, OR you can send me your zipcode and I'll be happy to give you an accurate quote and change the shipping to the correct amount if you'd like to proceed with the purchase.
Buyer to pay no more than $9.95 shipping fees, possibly less depending on your location.
SHIPPING CHARGE INFO:
I do combine shipping on multiple items purchased. However, my web host is not set up to calculate multiple item shipping costs. At checkout, you will be charged full shipping price on each item purchased and I will refund the appropriate amount of overpayment. If you are uncomfortable with that, you can send me an email with your zip code and stating which items you'll be purchasing and I'll calculate the correct combined shipping charges and send you a custom invoice.
Also, every January the postal service increases shipping charges. This year, many price increases were a bit steep with some package categories adding as much as a dollar on to an already high shipping charge. I try to absorb some of the new charges but that's getting harder with each increase.
International shipping charges also took a tremendous leap. International shipping will now depend on the country. Buyer must contact seller for international shipping charges before making a purchase. Seller reserves the right to void any international transactions where contact has not been made prior to purchasing.
All items in my listings come from either estate or garage sales. I do not know if they came from homes where smoking or pets were present. All items are sold in the same condition as when I received them.
