Matt,
I can definately help you with these...
If you want a bottle dated or appraised for valuation, I will need to have some clear
photos in order to know what I am looking at: These photos are critical, both for the
dating information, and especially the valuation portion as “Condition is Everything “.
Dating-critical information is often found in these places on your bottles:
1) The Cap style
2) The Tax Stamps (Federal on top, and State on side - If available)
3) The Shoulder-label (Between the neck & body of the bottle)
4) The Front-label (Main label on the front of the bottle)
5) The Back-label
6) The Bottom of the bottle also often has useful information
I can usually date most bottles within 48-72 hours.
Cheers,
Walter C Hurst
