40 Vintage Gifts for People Who Are Sick of Crap
They almost never use Catalin radios because the cases are shrinking from age, plus the heat from the tubes will leave burn marks, and cause stress cracks in the case to become worse. Unfortunately the Catalin radios were just not very well designed for long term survival, with that type of...- Absinthe_1900

40 Vintage Gifts for People Who Are Sick of Crap
The amazing self destructing Catalin radio case, so pretty to look at, so over priced to own. At least a Zenith Strat does something useful for it's high dollar price tag.- Absinthe_1900

Does Anyone Drink Rye Whiskey?
One could always do it the old New Orleans way of tossing the glass in the air to coat the glass with Herbsaint, however with my cat-like reflexes, I'd break my old Sazerac bar glass. From 1944:- Absinthe_1900

I heard a very interesting presentation by Chris MacMillian, from his research & documentation, the name Sazerac as a cocktail, wasn't used until well into the Rye era of the drink. So far this is the only extant bottle of the Legendre New Orleans Bitters known to exist, they are very carefully...- Absinthe_1900

During the Cognac era it was simply called a cocktail. The Bitter Truth stuff is nice, though I'd like to see Sazerac bring back this little...- Absinthe_1900

The Miracle of Absinthe
L'Enjôleuse out of France looks interesting. Probably on the expensive side with shipping.
