| Hi there I've been working at an old friends all week and I mentioned Whisky ,upon which my old friend appeared with two bottles from his cupboard both are from the 1960's I guessed as the volume was imperial both measure 26 2/3fl.ozs both are 70deg proof no 1 whyte&mackay 21yr old blend the other no 2 crawfords five star both are in pretty good condition but no boxes and both are sealed , can anybody help with an approximate value of each of these , we have a sweep going for a bit of fun closest to the value wins 50 p per bottle. If you really need pics I will do my best but John or jab had to post the last time for me cheers Alan. Sorry about the big spiel!!![/i] |

Crawfords 5 Star was discontinued but they do still produce the Crawfords 3 Star but even that can be pretty hard to come by but you will find the 3 Star available in a few online whisky shops. Benrinnes single malt was a long time component in the Crawfords 5 Star blend.
You will find the Crawfords 3 Star today for around £13. The Crawfords 5 Star would be difficult to find now but i think they do sometimes come up at auction, my guesstimate would be around £80 - £100
Not sure about the 1960s whyte & mackay 21 year old as far as value is concerned as i havent seen one from the 1960s for sale but it may well be worth more than the Crawfords.
Just my opinion so my guesstimate may be way out, i would suggest contacting Mctears or Bonhams auctions if you are thinking about selling any of them or if you are opening them, enjoy. |

thanks charlie, im trying the auction houses in past auctions, very difficult as there tends to be two or more bottles per lot, so difficult to get an estimate on each individual bottle, thanks for the help and cheers alan.  |
