We’d be honored to add you to our customer wish list.We ask what we consider to be a fair price for anything we sell and understand that our idea of a fair price may be someone else's 'that's too much' price.

There is always a Sale by TheBay!
We just came across three vintage beer cases, a Schoenling, Carling Black Label and Stroh's Bohemian Lager, all full of vintage beer bottles. We ended up with 72 different bottles, both imported and domestic. All of the bottles date from the late 1950s to the early 1970s. We come across cans quite often, but beer bottles are quite a bit more rare. Most of the bottles are free of case wear on the glass and the labels are in very nice condition with hardly any wear on any of them.
If beer bottles are your thing, feel free to check the others out and we do combine shipping based quoted price from each of the three major carriers based on the size and weight of the box. The bottles all weigh more than one pound when packed for shipping, so they can't go first class. With that said, it would certainly be more cost effective to buy multiple bottles with combined shipping to reduce the average shipping cost per bottle.
Now onto the item for sale.
For sale is a 1970s Dos Equis XX Beer 12 ounce, 9 1/2" beer bottle brewed by the Cerveceria Moctezuma Brewery in Monterrey, Mexico.
According to the label, this beer was imported by La Preferida Liquors, Inc. in Chicago, IL.
The bottom has a mark from the manufacturer that looks like an M within a triangle, but we have been unable to identify the manufacturer which we trust was south of the border. It also has a 74 on the bottom which was typically the date code for the year of bottle manufacture, but that may not be the case with this bottle. Given that, we trust this bottle was originally filled in 1974 or very shortly thereafter, but the 74 may be a date code and it may have been filled earlier.
The label is in really nice overall condition some wear mainly on the main label.
The bottle itself is also in excellent vintage condition with no case wear.
Unfortunately, this beer bottle will weigh more than one pound when packed for shipping, so it can't go first class.
We offer several shipping options, just make your selection upon checkout.
Truth be told, it would be much more cost effective to purchase several beer bottles and save on shipping per bottle since we only charge for the additional weight as quoted by the three carriers and you select which one you prefer.
Thanks for looking and God bless!
