Unopened bottle of limited edition Remy Martin 250th Anniversary Cognac (1724-1974) from the liquor collection of Meyer and Teddy Lansky, serial no. 007535B, 80 proof, 4/5 quart. The top retains its original US Internal Revenue label, which is at one side. Includes its original wooden presentation box. In very good to fine condition, with portions of the wax cracking and crumbling, remnants of which have fallen to the bottom of the case and smudged the sides of the bottle. Accompanied by a certificate of authenticity signed by Meyer Lansky’s step-granddaughter Cynthia Duncan. Provenance: The Thelma Lansky Trust. Production of these special bottles was limited to 38,709, and said to use a special blend of old and rare cognacs ranging between 80 and 100 years old. During Prohibition, Lansky ran a lucrative bootlegging operation with his friend Bugsy Siegel. The 'Bugs and Meyer Mob' served as the predecessor to Murder, Inc. A desirable bottle of cognac in its own right, this offers a fantastic connection between Lansky and his early Prohibition-era exploits.
