1976 Greater Greensboro Open Decanter

This golf bag shaped decanter was "hand crafted" by the Royal Halburton China for the 39th Greater Greensboro Open. It features the "Declaration of Springtime" themed logo seen on most of the promotional items from 1976 and has the crest now most closely associated with the Green Coat Club.

This bottle was produced by Old Mr. Boston Distillers and contained what an ad from the 1976 GGO program refers to as "the very finest 100-month-old Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey." Only 6,000 were made and the molds were destroyed. These decanters were available in the Greensboro State Liquor stores.Posted by Picasa
