Ty Cobb flask in Huggins & Scott

[BigJJ]

Looks like a silver plated cocktail shaker, and/or liquor case, need to see in person, and a glass decanter. The glass decanter intended to be stored in the shaker/case. Mixed drinks, alcohol with soda and/or juice, became popular during prohibition due to poor quality alcohol, need cocktail shakers, decanters also became popular during prohibition, to hide origin of alcohol, as well as hiding alcohol in plain sight (in the shaker). reasonable to think this is from the 1920s-1930s. Also the fact that there may be no markings on the shaker or decanter also may indicate prohibition era.
Cracking up regarding flask designation. Who would carry a glass flask on the road, and banging against a metal container, would break very quickly, alcohol would go everywhere. The silver plated container is a cocktail shaker and/or container to keep illegal alcohol out of plain sight, avoiding the ire of visitors who are pro prohibition, and avoiding cause for law to look around. Does appear to date to Cobb's playing days or directly after.
Needs the bump worked out, and re-silvering in antique silver to improve appearance, then it would present importantly. Wish there were more provenance. age of inscription does look good to me, at internet distance. corrosion of inscription, appears to be some rusting of sorts in the inscription, and bumps/scratches after inscription rather than before that carry over onto the non-inscribed body. would need to see in person.
