Default Dewars White Label 26 3/4fl oz

I have found an old bottle of Dewar’s White Label and wonder how old it is. Unfortunately the posting rules do not permit me to attach an image so I will try to describe it as best I can.

At the top of the label is the royal crest above a ‘chain’ of medals won by the whisky. Under these is the name of the whisky in the format

Dewar’s
FINE SCOTCH WHISKY
“White Label”


Under this is the name & address of the company and lastly the alcohol content & volume of the bottle (70o proof 26 3/4fl oz).

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Graham

Default Dewar's White Label

Graham,

Based on the Main-label only, this bottle was produced sometime after 1972.
(By 1973 Dewar's had removed the term "distillers" from their main-label.)

Additionally, I believe that the "26 2/3 fl. ozs." was changed to metric units
about 1978.

Cheers,
Walter C Hurst
