ILLINIWEK #5 ILLINI UNIV. OF ILLINOIS DECANTER
10-1/2" tall limited edition ceramic decanter made in 1987 by Old
Commonwealth Distillery to honor the University of Illinois' Chief Illiniwek.
This is the last in a series of five. This decanter has been repaired.
Horse's right ear has been glued back on and the tail has been glued back
on. The ear is rather noticeable but the tail is very hard to detect unless
looking closely. There is a small 1/8" X 1/4" chip under the
tail. Otherwise, A-1 condition.

9-1/2" tall (375ML) "sample" or "one-of-a-kind"
ceramic decanter made by Old Commonwealth Distillery to honor the University
of Illinois' Chief Illiniwek. This decanter may differ from the regular
issue in color (we don't have a regular issue to compare it to-but we
do not remember the regular issue having as vivid a color) and does not
have a "backstamp" (identifying print underneath). Since we
do not have a regular issue to compare to, there may be other differences.
A-1 condition.

ILLINIWEK #1 ILLINI UNIV.ILLINOIS SAMPLE DECANTER
13-3/4" tall ceramic decanter made in 1979 by Goto of Japan for Old
Commonwealth Distillery. This is a "sample" or "one-of-a-kind"
decanter. It differs from the regular issue in that it has no "backstamp"
(identifying print underneath) such as is on the regular issue and it
still has the Goto sample identifying tag on the bottom. A-1 condition
except for 2 china separations on the headdress. One is on the left and
is visible from both front and back of the decanter. The other is much
smaller and visible only from the front. Unless looking at the decanter
closely, it is difficult to detect either separation.

ONE-OF-A-KIND
COAL MINER #1 DECANTERS
Pictured are 3 different Old Commonwealth #1 coal miner
decanters. The one in the center is the decanter actually issued in 1975.
It is 13-1/2" tall and a limited edition. The decanters to the left
and right are "sample or mock-up" decanters. They differ from
the regular issue in that both are about 1/4" shorter in height,
have different stoppers, different colored pails, and different colored
shovels. The samples also have more contrast to them. We believe both
of the samples to be the only ones like them in existence.

differences. We believe both of the samples to be the only ones like them
in existence.
