after prohibition was repealed on dec 5, 1933, US laws once again allowed the legal manufacture + sale of alcoholic drink

liquor was legal but producing it was subject to greater federal control — one law required that alcoholic bottles must be embossed with the text:

FEDERAL LAW FORBIDS SALE OR REUSE OF THIS BOTTLE

this law went into effect in 1935 + was repealed on dec 1, 1964 — both bottles are stamped with the above text.
