______________________________
 
According to John Thomas, Kirkpatrick removed himself from the liquor business due to his involvement in S.F. politics and his  appointment to the position as chief of police.
 
However, it was actually McCue who abrubtly departed from the wholesale liquor scene in 1875.

So where is an intact bottle?!!!


 And, could there be a variant with the mold slugged to read Kirkpatrick & Gentry?
 

It documents the existence of at least pieces of the bottle.
