Exactly what it is. They were a "thing" in the 50s.
It's a slang term for high-proof hooch. My guess is these were done by a newspaper editorial cartoonist. That would make sense of a guy...
(whispers - just don't tell the furniture junkies here where that house is. )
The top part is certainly; I'd be thinking 50s on the whole thing, now that we can see the wear around the clasp. Without it, I was thinking 80s...
