It looks to be a standard bottle of Red Label from the time they used a cork closure. If they changed at the same time as the rest of the indistry to a metal cap then it would date from around 1960/70 or earlier. It really depends on what the strength and bottle size that's quoted on the label.

the label has no strengh or bottle size printed on it also the bottle does not have the famous striding man
