JOHN BARLEYCORN AWAKENS.
Old whiskey for sale now, delivery after repeal,
that is the mission of New York's newest exchange
—the American Liquor Exchange, Inc. A few days
ago it opened for business and old John Barleycorn
awakened from his 14-year sleep, rubbed the cobwebs
out of his eyes, and recognized among old friends
of the pre-Volstead era such personages as Old
Barbara, Belle Henderson, Old Grandad, Old Taylor
and Old McBrayer. These and many other brands
were listed on the exchange's bulletin boards. No
liquor stock is carried on hand just now. As a
starter, trading is done in warehouse receipts for
bonded 'liquor, primarily rye and Bourbon whiskies.
