ERWIN ROMMEL Gin Bottle War Trophy

Gin bottle from the hoard seized from the Nazis in Italy in 1944. Originally captured by Rommel's Afrikakorps, the massive amount of casked liquor was moved from north Africa to Nettuno, then captured by Allied troops, who had a local bottling company bottle and label it. Comes with hardbound book (in German) that relates the entire saga. Bottle is still sealed, though considerable evaporation has happened. This is a collectible bottle, and its contents are incidental and not intended for consumption.
