These two bottles are reproductions of originals made by the Whitney Glassworks in Glassboro, New Jersey, from 1858–70. E.G. Booz’s Old Cabin Whiskey bottle, shaped like an American cabin, is the most reproduced antique bottle to date. With the word “WHISKEY” engraved on the front, we can assume the liquid which it was used to store. The green flask was also originally produced by the Clevenger Brothers and used to hold a spirit.
