Jug House Journal "Collector's Edition" July of 1977.

I was able to pick this up recently. A rare newsprint version of the Jug House Journal from July 1977. In it are all sorts of gems of information- Michter's history, the timeline of the famous Michter's jugs, and lots of great photos of things past, present, and future projects. In the top left photo on page 3, Elaine would later marry Master Distiller Dick Stoll. Michter's, as I have been told from former employees, was one big family and they enjoyed working together. Below are scans of the complete Jug House Journal "Collector's Edition."

  1. Hi, my father had a small collection of decanters. He passed earlier this year. My mother and I have been giving some away. After I found your blog it confirmed that they are not worth much. We would like to dispose of what we have. If I gave you the list would you be able to connect me with people who might be interested?

    1. I could try. I can maybe give you an idea too if any of them do hold extra value. Your best bet for selling them is on Craigslist, Facebook Marketplace, or EBay (If you're willing to ship them....). Biggest asset would be if some or all of them are full. Let me know what you have and hopefully I can lend some guidance.

      Thanks,

      -Ethan.
