These are fairly common throughout the USA and it is likely to be pre-prohibition, certainly pre-war (indicated by the 'Berry Bros. & Co.' text). Hopefully this will be of some help to you. Hello Curtis,

From speaking to our chairman, Simon Berry, it seems that what you are describing is probably an old Cutty Sark bottle (although it is possible that it may have contained sherry at some point). These are fairly common throughout the USA and it is likely to be pre-prohibition, certainly pre-war (indicated by the ‘Berry Bros. & Co.’ text).

Hopefully this will be of some help to you.

It is green with "Federal Law Forbids Sale Or Re-Use Of This Bottle" across the top. Then, "Berry Bros. & Co. London, England" across the bottom facade. If anyone knows more about this bottle or is interested in it please let me know. I found it in a type of thrift store that came from an estate sale and it caught my eye. I guess sheer curiousity got the better of me. I have found an old Berry’s bottle. It is green with “Federal Law Forbids Sale Or Re-Use Of This Bottle” across the top. Then, “Berry Bros. & Co.
