Flasks have become a most popular and prized item among collectors, adding to the variety of decorative, historical and pictoral depictions on many pieces. The outstanding colors have had a major effect on the value of these pieces, more so than most other collectible bottles. Since flasks were designed with the intent to refill the bottles with whiskey or other spirits, more time and effort was expended in the manufacturing process than most other types of bottles. Flasks soon became a popular item for use with all types of causes and promotions. Mottos were frequently embossed on flasks and included a number of patriotic sayings and slogans. Because of the use of flasks for the promotion of various political and special interest agendas, they represented a major historical record of the people and events of those times.
