Duffy's Malt Whiskey antique glass bottle deeply embossed Rochester N.Y.Huge old amber bottle dated August 24 1886 it measures ten and a half inches tall.
This bottle also apears in the The State Archaeological Collections Research Facility (SACRF) in West Sacramento California. Originally Duffys whisky was a Heart Tonic, latter well after this Victorian bottle and prior to prohibition, it became liquor. About as medicinal as embalming fluid, the company stayed in business until 1926.
I found this neat ancient liquor bottle deep down in the mud of Shelter Island New York. Cast away from the Victorian hotels that surounded the esturary creek, see pictures, I scuba dive. Rich amber wheat color with rainbow hues.
If the ocean were whiskey
and I was a duck
I'd swim to the bottom
and never come up
I'd swim all around
'til I nearly drown
But the ocean ain't whiskey
and I ain't no duck.
