Description: We go to estate sales regularly and come across a wide array of unique and rare items. We add to our growing online inventory daily. We pick up new items from all over the world and all over the US. We also have a growing customer wish list. If you'd like to, feel free to add us to your saved seller's list and let us know what you collect and/or need. We’d be honored to add you to our customer wish list. We ask what we consider to be a fair price for anything we sell and understand that our idea of a fair price may be someone else's 'that's too much' price. If that's the case, feel free to make us an offer and will consider it. We also have sales regularly, so check back often. There is always a Sale by TheBay! .We just came across three vintage beer cases, a Schoenling, Carling Black Label and Stroh's Bohemian Lager, all full of vintage beer bottles. We ended up with 72 different bottles, both imported and domestic. All of the bottles date from the late 1950s to the early 1970s. We come across cans quite often, but beer bottles are quite a bit more rare. Most of the bottles are free of case wear on the glass and the labels are in very nice condition with hardly any wear on any of them. If beer bottles are your thing, feel free to check the others out and we do combine shipping based quoted price from each of the three major carriers based on the size and weight of the box. The bottles all weigh more than one pound when packed for shipping, so they can't go first class. With that said, it would certainly be more cost effective to buy multiple bottles with combined shipping to reduce the average shipping cost per bottle.Now onto the item for sale. For sale is a 1960s Mackeson Stout 11.39 ounce, 9" beer bottle brewed by Mackeson & Co. Ltd. in London, England.According to the neck label, this bottle was imported by Bedford Importers, Inc. in New York, NY.Bottles are much more scarce than beer cans which are typically quite plentiful. This brand is much harder to find than most beer bottles.The bottom of this bottle has 1944 - 64 and a square with four dots inside that looks just like the side of a die (dice). We trust that is the mark of the manufacturer, but we haven't located a good source for European glass companies and this bottle was certainly made somewhere in Europe.We would imagine that the 64 was the year of manufacture as domestic bottle manufactures typically put date codes for the year of manufacture on bottles. Most of the other 71 bottles we got were also from the 60s with some being late 50s and the others being early 70s.It is also identical to another bottle we got from the same brewery, with the exception of the 64 which is a 53 on the other bottle.Both of the labels are in very nice overall condition with little wear. The bottle itself is also in excellent vintage condition with no case wear. Unfortunately, this beer bottle will weigh more than one pound when packed for shipping, so it can't go first class. We offer several shipping options, just make your selection upon checkout. Truth be told, it would be much more cost effective to purchase several beer bottles and save on shipping per bottle since we only charge for the additional weight as quoted by the three carriers and you select which one you prefer. Thanks for looking and God bless!
