Old Bell's Scotch... help needed

Can anyone help me date this unopened Bell's bottle?

We will see what we can find out! Also, you may hear directly from Bell's brand owner, Diageo, as they like to respond directly to customers. Thanks for the photos - they're great!

I received this information from Diageo:

"This bottle was produced by Bell's for the US market, and from comparing it to those in our historic bottle collection, I would date it between the early 1950s and early 1960s. I can't be any more specific than this I'm afraid, as Bell's bottles and packaging from this period were only updated/changed about once a decade."

Many thanks to you, Jojo, for your help!
