Up for sale is a fantastic piece of 1940s distilling history: a clear glass whiskey bottle from the Wilken Family. This bottle features heavy embossing, including the iconic portrait of Harry E. Wilken Sr. on the front, flanked by distillery buildings and soaring birds. The sides are beautifully detailed with embossed wheat stalks, and the base features the etched script signatures of Harry E. Wilken Sr., Harry E. Wilken Jr., and William T. Wilken. It still retains its original weathered metal cap, adding to its rustic shelf appeal.


​Condition Note: The glass is structurally sound with no chips or cracks. There is some light internal hazing/film consistent with age (see photos). The metal cap shows significant patina and oxidation, giving it a true "found" vintage look.
