Top box should get you started
Still can't fine this bottle just who made it.
This is what is called a backbar bottle. It would have been used in a early saloon. The liquor would be shipped in wooden kegs and the bartenders would transfer it to the bottle to display on the Backbar. Each company would provide the bottle with their names on them. Some were etched, and some were enameled like yours. I have a collection of about 12 of them.
rocker-sd Thank you I now know what kind of bottle it is,but still can not find it anywhere on the net.I did find some that look a lot like it just can't find the Hill And Hill name.I hope that means it is very rare.
