1972 FIGHTING ILLINI CHIEF ILLINIWEK MEMORIAL STADIUM OLD FITZGERALD DECANTER For Sale

UP FOR sale IS AN VERY DETAILED 1972 FIGHTING ILLINI CHIEF ILLINIWEK UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS OLD FITZGERALD DECANTER. MADE FROM GENUINE TALISMAN PORCELAIN FROM THE STITZEL WELLER DISTILLERY AND ONCE FILLED WITH OLD FITZGERALD PRIME BOURBON WHISKEY, IT MEASURES JUST SHORT OF 10\" TALL AND A LITTLE LESS THAN 4\" WIDE(OR ROUND) AT ITS WIDEST POINT. I RECENTLY PURCHASED THIS FROM A LOCAL ESTATE SELL AND WAS FULL WHEN I PURCHASED IT(EMPTY NOW). IT SEEMED LIKE THIS WAS DISPLAYED CLOSE TO THE STOVE BECAUSE WHEN I GOT IT, IT WAS STICKY AND YELLOWED A BIT. I GOT IT TO CLEAN UP PRETTY GOOD BUT THE LABELS SEEM YELLOWER THAN THEY SHOULD BE. THE GRAPHICS ON THE DECANTER ARE GREAT BUT HAVE SOME PAINT WHERE IT SHOULDN\'T BE(ALONG TOP RIM SLIGHTLY ABOVE AND BELOW WHERE IT SEPARATES. THE BACK LABEL IS TATTERED AND SEEMS TO HAVE OOZED GLUE AROUND THE LABEL OVER TIME. THE CORK IS BROKEN AND BRITTLE SO THE TOP SITS JUST FINE BUT IF IT IS TILTED THE TOP WILL FALL OFF. GREAT DISPLAYABLE SHAPE WITH NO CHIPS OR CRACKS.IT IS IMPORTANT TO EXAMINE THE PHOTOS CAREFULLY AS YOUR ULTIMATE GUIDE TO THERE CONDITION AND VALUE!!
