1877 Daniel Boone Booth MOONSHINE Whiskey STILL Distiller Civil War Bar Alabama An ornate original antique document dated 1877 for the Business of Wholesale Liquor Dealer issued by the US Internal Revenue...\"Severe Penalties are imposed for neglect or refusal to place and keep this stamp conspicuously in your establishment or place of business\"! This was signed by Revenue Collector, Daniel Boone Booth, there are a few articles on Google about his life.
He was a distant cousin to John Wilkes Booth. Please see photos!

This document has beautiful graphics on a great shade of yellow paper (nicer in person)! Engraved on the top center is the Greek God, Mercury, with the medical symbol (snake & staff) in hand, leaning on a large woven wicker, glass bottle, sitting next to wooden kegs, a moonshine still, along with a funnel lying on the ground!

The government used this stamp as a tax for selling, dispensing and distilling liquor to raise money to pay for the Civil War. In fine print on the side is: \"Engraved & Printed at the Bureau, Engraving & Printing\", \"$100 Dollars Per Year\" near the bottom, and \"Stamp For Special Tax.\"

The front of the document measures 8\" by 7\", the coupons are folded behind, so the total length is 14\". There are multiple hole punches on the front (to void), three punches, roughness/tattering on the back edge, one or two small spots and light bends, otherwise, condition is excellent...a beautiful, historically interesting document!

This is a FANTASTIC piece of liquor/distilling history and would be great to display in a wine cellar, pharmacy, bar, distillery, museum or office! I am happy to answer any questions, please feel free to email and thank you for your interest! :)
