Whiskey Bottle
(18th and 19th Centuries )
The Walters' family fortune was founded on marketing and distilling of rye whiskey and other liquors. William T. Walters used the wealth he amassed in this line of business to invest in railways and steamships, before moving into banking. Through his brother, Edwin, the Walters' name was associated with rye whiskey throughout the 19th century.
