I have a fifth of 12 year old, 100 proof, Very Very Old Fitgerald, "Original Sour Mash Kentucky Bonded Bourbon", barreled in 1953, bottled in 1965.
It is unopened, in a lockable, plush red velvet presentation case with two, gold decorated shot glasses. The outside of the case is covered in what appears to be red leather, or perhaps "leatherette".
The bottle has a label that says it is "A Collector's Item".
My ex and I received it from her Father for an anniversary gift in 1965 or '66.
Any idea what it might be worth?
