White Horse Whiskey Bottle
 
Hi I was wondering if anyone could tell me what year this bottle is from and a price on what it's worth if anything, I have not seen one like it and am beginning to think it quite rare. Thanks in advance. Dean

Gu no. 5684225
The bottom of the bottle says sc303 A 163
Having problems uploading a photo but the neck on the bottle is very long and twisted I will try and upload using a desktop computer later :-)

White horse whiskey bottle
 
Dean,

This bottle is the creation of a glass-artist's "morph-art"....Often times artists
will 'adapt' a traditional bottle into a 'decorative piece' by heating & changing
the original shape into something quite differant. Considered to be a modern
form of folk-art, and is often sold at local fairs & markets.

Unfortunately it's not something created by the distiller/bottler, but you wont
find any two that are identical either!

The bottle itself appears to be from the early 1960's.

Cheers,

Thank you for that information Walter, I take it the bottle has no value to it? We have had it as a decorative piece in our house for nearly 20 years and I guess we were hoping it might be worth something, going slightly off the whiskey subject we also have a bottle of maldano crazy crazy crazy cocktail which is also a very strange shape I don't suppose you have an idea on age and price on it do you? Thanks in advance, Dean.

Here is the bottle in question thanks again sorry it's not a whiskey bottle but you seem to know what your talking about

Dea,

Neither have much value to collectors, but they may be worth a few buck at a local fair.

Cheers,
