This cabinet card portrait captures four well dressed men sitting around a table topped with glasses as well as a bottle of Hunter Baltimore Rye Whiskey. The Hunter brand was once one of the most popular brands of Rye Whiskey in the United States. It was introduced in the 1850’s as Hunter Rye Whiskey but became famous as Hunter Baltimore Rye Whiskey during the latter part of the nineteenth century. The bottle pictured in this photograph is the “Hunter Baltimore” version. The brand won the Grand Prize at the 1904 World’s Fair in St. Louis. The men in this photograph look quite serious about this drinking session. SOLD
