Thank you for viewing our Store,
We have for sale an Antique King George IV Whiskey Corkscrew Advertisement Corkscrew.
Wonderful Early 1900s Picnic or pocket style corkscrew with the advertisement imprinted into both sides of the sheath. This a very collectible style of corkscrew. Some think that the sheath is damaged when first looked at but that is wrong the sheath has two ¾” cuts at the open end to allow it to securely snap over the shank of the corkscrew when stored.
Why a corkscrew for whiskey? The bottle cap was not invented until the late 1800s by the Crown Cork Co. Baltimore and not highly used until into the early 1900s. Before the cap was introduced most all bottles had corks including Medicines, Perfumes and Alcohol.
Circa; 1920s
Marked: King George IV Whiskey, The Distillers Company LTD.
Measures: 3.875” long
Condition: very good with plating lose.
