The building that I retired from was built in 1910. Sometime around 2000 we hired a crew to enlarge a doorway in the basement of it. One of the workers brought us a liquor bottle that they found in the wall from the original build.
It was a pint bottle with a twisted neck and metal cap...prob rum or gin. (the label was unreadable)
The funny thing is that there was a small orange slice in the bottle and even after being there for 100 years the orange still had moisture in it. The cap did a good job of sealing.
