Hello,

I'm looking for some help. My father-in-law picked up a few bottles at an estate sale and I was hoping someone could give me an idea of the ages and values of these three bottles:

1) I.W. Harper- "Very Limited Edition" Commemorative Bottling of 12 year old bourbon [UNOPENED]

2) Platte Valley Straight Corn Whiskey (1978), McCormick Distilling Co. Weston, Missouri. [UNOPENED]

3) Beam Distilling Co, 175 month old bourbon at bottling, in Genuine Handcrafted Regal China Decanter.[half of the cork broke off, but bottle is full]

Pictures of each are attached. Thank you for your help!!

The 175 month old Beam is good whiskey, as is the 12 y/o Harper. The Harper is more valuable than the Beam but value is in the eye of the one who buys it.

What $ amount would you put on the Harper and the Beam? I'm thinking of selling the 'bottles'
