This very rare bottle of Canadian Club Whisky is date stamped 1931, during the U.S. prohibition period (1920 - 1933) when contraband whisky, mostly from Canada was smuggled into the USA. It is often rumoured that Hiram Walker & Sons, the owners of Canadian Club & whose name appears prominently on this label, came to prominance as a global spirits company through whisky running into the USA. 

The embossed neck capsule is covered by the original & unbroken government seal (strip stamp) personally numbered 01397 & dated 1931. The bottle shows no ABV strength or volume because it predates that legislation.
