Old Bottle of White Horse

[bsteller]

I acquired an old bottle of White Horse and hoped you could help identify its age and approximate value. The number on the label says "No AV 1640963" and the number on the red label across the bottle cap says "36A3833158".

I"ll see what I can find out for you!

Your bottle of White Horse is dated from the 1950s. :D

That's interesting because the "friend" from whom I got it from claimed it was from the prohibition era and that the owner of a local liquor store had offered him $500 a bottle. I take just about everything he says with a grain of salt because he always likes to tell tall tales. Thank you very much, Jojo.

$500 for a bottle of White Horse?! That's definitely a tall tale! :eek:

Always happy to help, but sure do wish I could have confirmed that dollar amount.

Thank you again, Jojo. I read your reply 2 hours ago and I'm still laughing.

The value of a bottle of WH from the fifties, which this one indeed is, is about 200-250$. Prohibition WH would probably fetch around if not more than 500.

I also have aquired a bottle of white horse blended scotch whiskey AF #937884 on the bottle, and on the tin box it is housed in, #2735943. Is this a collector's item? Do these numbers tell what year it was bottled? Would appreciate any info you have. Thanks
