Black Bottle Pre War Strength - Circa 1930

1 bottle Black Bottle. Bottled circa 1930 by Gordon Graham & Co Ltd. No box. Early screw cap with branded lead foil capsule. No capacity stated. 'Pre War Strength' which is equivalent to 80 proof. Level base of neck. Please note bottle seeped/leaked slightly in transit to us. While every effort will be made to ship this bottle with the greatest possible level of care and protection, we cannot guarantee it will not leak in transit and we therefore recommend direct collection of this lot if possible. Please take this into consideration when bidding. Although dark glass, the liquid looks clear and shoulder be perfectly drinkable.  This bottles comes from a full case of 12 that was purchased over 30 years ago by the vendor in his local pub. Over the years he slowly drank them. I asked him if he enjoyed them and he said they were very nice with coke :O and he always thought it was peculiar they had 'Pre War Strength' stated on the bottle. This particular bottle was saved and remains the last bottle from the original case.  Although we sold one of these last year this is an incredibly hard bottle to find; in fact we have never seen this bottle before it was sold in our auction and to say this bottle is over 80 years old, it is in terrific condition and is impeccably drinkable.
