I have a Hofheimer's Rye bottle. It has an eagle embosed on it and Norfolk, Va. Was there a Hofheimer distillery? Is this bottle worth anything. If anyone has any answer I would appreciate knowing something about this piece. Thank You rick

Maybe the bottle was a promotion of some sort by the shoe shop, Hofheimer's, who opened in Norfolk in the late 1880s?

Yours aye
