I will, over the next few weeks, attempt to photo ID the bottles recently inherited. It will be a tremendous task that will move at a snails pace. Regarding whisky, I have Ballantine, House of Lords, Robertson's B.E.B., Black and White, Chivas, Cutty Sark, John Jameson & Son, Paddy, John Power & Son,as well as, J&B. In the American variety of bourbon whiskey I have Old Grand Dad, Old Taylor, and I.W. Harper. Finally, from Canada, I have MacNaughton, Canadian Club, Old MacLeod.
The wine botlles have 1957 and 1961 labels, as well as some of the packing boxes, so my educated guess is that the whiskey was purchased around the same time. I also noticed that some of these products actually came in decanters, individually boxed or wrapped, as they were intended as Christmas or office party presents in the law firm.
