Hi John,

Saw it on e-bay recently, were you the successful purchaser!

Bushmills was advertised as a 9yo from 1963 to about 1967.

My guess is this may have been repackaged privately in the US for a special occasion.
It may me an unofficial edition.

Love to see a few close ups of any markings.

Bushmills themselves may also be able to help you on this.

My tuppence worth anyway...

Thanks TWB

Yeah, I won it. Had it sent to a friend in German who's sending it on to me, so it hasn't arrived yet here yet.

Anyway, it looks good, whatever it is. I'll send some pics to Bushmills when it arrives and see what they say.

Thanks for the info.

John
