I have recently acquired what I think is an pretty old, unopened Johnnie Walker black label bottle and original box and wrapped with JW cartoon logo "BORN 1820 STILL GOING STRONG" the bottle reads “Johnnie Walker” Black Label, EXTRA SPECIAL, Old Scotch Whisky, JOHN WALKER & SONS LTD,, KILMARNOCK (REGISTERED) PRODUCE OF SCOTLAND, BY APPOINTMENT TO HER MAJESTY THE QUEEN SCOTCH WHISKY DISTILLERS, JOHN WALKER & SONS, LTD. DISTILLERS, KILMARNOCK, SCOTLAND, SAME QUALITY THROUGHOUT THE WORLD. NET 1PINT 6 FLUID OUNCES.
I will try and upload some photos. The more info I can get of some people who are in the know the better cheers :)

Additional info from member:

I have got a unopened black label JW bottle and box, I have being trying to id the age all day, the bottle reads extra special old scotch whisky (Kilmarnock) appointment to her majesty the queen.
And the its measured in imperial “NET 1 PINT 6 FLUID OUNCES” ( I live in aust BTW ) so I was thinking it would have to be pre 30s before we went to metric? And on the back the diamond sticker reads “distilled and bottled in Scotland under British government supervision”
Now for the glasswork writing and numbers (BACK) JOHNNIE WALKER THIS BOTTLE ALWAYS REMAINS THE PROPERTY OF JOHNNIE WALKER & SONS LTD.
(BOTTOM) Now this is where becomes bit hard being handmade and really hard to read.

I've been looking for info on this bottle of john walker and sons liquor i found in my grandparents basement. It does not have a big label but it has a small label that has a man walking and the side of the cap it says in cursive, john walker and sons limited, and on the top it has john walker and sons limited kilmarnock. On the bottem of the bottle it also has
SB 984
Liquor

I would just like to know what i have, and is it worth anything.
If not ill drink it.
