: Hi, I just found an aluminum collapsible shot glass? I think with advertising on the bottom PURE RYE OLD FARM WHISKEY in very good condition it has a rolled rim 2" high when pulled out and 1 1/4" when pushed down. Are they common, or valuable.
Among collectors, this type of glass is known as a "slider." The brand of whiskey represented on your shot dates back to 1907 through 1918. I have sevral sliders in my collection, but I don't have the Old Farm Pure Rye Whiskey shot. Most glasses of this type are valued from $12 to $25, but yours could be worth more or less than that.
