This Jim Beam decanter has never been used and is in new condition. I don't believe it was sold in a box.
It's a ceramic replica of the Lake Tahoe Barney's slot machine, the world's largest in 1978. This decanter is also the largest Regal China bottle ever produced at that time. It's a beauty!
I did not pull out the cork. It is possibly dry rotted from age, as is often the case with these vintage decanters. This decanter does not have liquor, and was originally sold empty in 1978.
