Pennco Bottling Line 1956
Here's a real piece of Michter's past! This photo was provided to me by Dick and Elaine Stoll. Mr. Stoll was Master Distiller from the time Everett Beam left until closure in 1990. Before that, he held several different positions in the distillery, starting in 1955. This is a photo of the bottling line in 1956 where they are bottling an order of Pennco Rye.
From L-R in the foreground are:
George Shattls (Who would become Michter's General Manager)
Bill Krause (Who would become Michter's Bottling House Manager)

Marie Hoffman Hippert
Betty Hoffman Hunsicker (Sister of Marie)

From L-R in background are:

Dick Stoll
Mabel Nye

have michter's king tut still sealed with black booklet... how much is it worth and where should I list it to sell? or should I just drink it thanks
ReplyDeleteIf it is full, it is technically illegal to resell. They are also only worth about $25 full right now, so drink, enjoy, and then display!
DeleteHave a Michters Pennsylvania keystone decanter any idea about this one ? is empty !
ReplyDeleteThe PA decanter (Shaped like the state) is not all that rare or expensive, but it is a great display piece. They go for $10-$20 usually. It's one of my favorites.
