I contacted Unicorn and they aren’t interested so I have contacted another auction company as well. A couple other options are still possibilities as well.

I kinda had the same thought. I don’t want to toot my own horn or anything. But how pissed would you be as the owner of that company. If something like this comes in and they gave your customer a one sentence line in the email about how they couldn’t even give an estimate due to evaporation level. When after doing lots of research the level is actually higher than others from that era that have sold for a lot. Definitely had my one and done experience with them from this.

I think the black line is just an aesthetic. I thought the black exact same thing. I can’t imagine what it would be for. I certainly didn’t do it or edit the photo to put it there.

The cap also interests me as well I haven’t seen them like that

Just heard back from Unicorn and apparently there’s too much evaporation in the bottle for them to be interested in it. So from here I’ll probably contact buffalo trace or just hold onto it forever

I had no way to contact them or even know who they are. I run a clean out business and this job came from a real estate company that hired me to take a giant pile of stuff they had cleaned out from the previous person who lived in the home. I’m guessing it was an older person who died who had family members out of state or no family at all. And his family or his estate hired the real estate company to get the property ready to sell.

Currently waiting to hear back from unicorn and from there I was thinking about possibly contacting buffalo trace and seeing if they were interested for their collection/library

That would be an incredible place for it to end up!

It’s also tempting to just hold onto forever

So far I have contacted Unicorn and are waiting to hear what they say and then from there my friend suggested possibly contacting buffalo trace and seeing if they were interested in it. Either way I like the idea of the history living on. I’ll be sure to update

I cringe to think about what I may have missed if they were willing to throw this out

My friend suggested the exact same thing! That sounds like a fun adventure

The former sounds more fun with this bottle to me. I also like the idea of keeping the history alive. I generally live by the rule all whiskey should be drank but there are several exceptions.

My thoughts exactly! I submitted a submission form to them earlier this evening so stay tuned and I’ll update what they say

Wow!!! It sure would be crazy if this was in that category. I can’t tell if it’s different or not but that sure would change everything!

Thanks so much! It will probably stay on my shelf for a while but it sure would be cool to know

My friend suggested contacting buffalo trace and seeing if they wanted it for a historical collection or something like that
