Ohio Whiskey Jug Fragment c. 1901-1918 (diameter of base: 4 cm)

Unearthed in Aurora, NY, this miniature ceramic jug once held a sample of liquor marketed by Cincinnati distillers Freiberg and Kahn. Listed in state records as the next generation of an old family business, the company relied upon improved railways and canals to conduct dispatched peddlers from Ohio to Central New York.
