Description

An extraordinary piece of bourbon history, this rare bottle of Old Fitzgerald was distilled in the Spring of 1917 and bottled in the Spring of 1932, just months before the repeal of Prohibition. Aged 15 years in wood, this 100 proof Bottled-in-Bond whiskey was produced at Mary M. Dowling’s Distillery No. 59 in Kentucky and bottled under permit by the legendary A. Ph. Stitzel, long before the Stitzel-Weller Distillery became a bourbon icon.

Packaged in its original box, this ½ pint medicinal whiskey was legally sold during Prohibition for therapeutic use only. The labeling includes full tax strip, caution notice, distillation and bottling dates, and the unmistakable Old Fitzgerald branding—one of the most collectible labels in bourbon history.

Whether you’re a serious whiskey collector, a history buff, or simply someone who wants to own a true relic of America’s bourbon heritage, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a bottle that helped keep bourbon alive during one of its darkest periods.

OUR WORK

Since we were formed in 1986, we have been a collaborative force to support agencies and people facing homelessness. Today, we have over 40 member agencies who provide shelter, housing, healthcare, food, outreach, and more. Our job is to educate the public about the face of homelessness; advocate for change; and coordinate the work of our partners by filling gaps in services and leveraging resources.
