Bottle is dirty but in solid shape. Crude machine made finish from late 1910s-1920s. Simple label suggests it is war time production which fits with the prizes mentioned on it. Shoulder label is basically impossible to read. Main label is pretty good with some missing to the left side. Some stain and marks. Both labels have had a lacquer or something put over them to preserve them. A really interesting piece of history. Early labels like this are very difficult to get. Grade: N/A Estimate: $100 - 150
