I have an old, unopened bottle fo Seagram's VO. The tax stamps on the cap are unbroken and it also has a Pennsylvania stamp on it as well. The Canadian excise stamp is dated 1964.

Is this something for a collector or should I just drink it and enjoy it?

It`s totally up to you,if you like whisky open it if you don`t put it into auction.If there is anybody interested you get a fair price for it but it is not such a searched whisky.Succes.Eric.

I think that my original question is yet unanswered. I'd hate to swill it an then find out that some collector really wanted it to complete a collection. The heck with the auction price.

I would drink it and don`t care for a collector.Enjoy it yourself.After all it is a sin have a bottle and never ever taste the stuff inside.SLAINTHE.

It is worth, as a collectible, less than $100 -- probably FAR less. This is a whisky produced in industrial numbers. It is NOT rare.
If you're a whisky fan, go ahead and drink it, perhaps alongside a current Seagram's VO to note the progressive differences over time.
If you do look to sell it, eBay is just about your only option to reach a large audience. The whisky-collecting community is relatively small and diffuse.

If you don`t mind Tim, i`d prefer the whiskyauction of Kruger.But drinking it is more my thing.

Thanks for the opinions. Where is this Kruger's auction? On the web?

Thanks for all of the info. This is getting complicated.
I think that I'll take your original piece of advice and drink it.
