A 1970s presentation of Booth's High & Dry Gin. This particular edition was bottled bottled in Spain, and has a rather different look compared to the english releases of a similar time.

A big 40 fluid ounce bottle, aka 1 quart, of Gordon's Dry Gin from the 1970s. Originally destined for the export market this has both British and American proof, a Spanish trademark declaration and the company's slogan of the day on the label - The Heart of a Good Cocktail.

A 1960s bottling of Silver Top gin from Bols - a London Dry style spirit produced in the home of Genever by one of the experts in the world of Genever production, Lucas Bols.
A rather old bottle of Grant's London Dry Gin which was produced for the Italian Market. This bottle has been sealed using a spring cap mechanism, which gives the impression that this is from sometime in the 1950s.
An old bottle of the now discontinued Crown Jewel Gin from Beefeater. Crown Jewel was massively popular for its higher strength and full on flavour. This earlier edition is entirely different to its successor in terms of appearance... Not a speck of purple to be seen anywhere.
