You gotta think here-
some dude in the 30's was like "oh shit, this shit is going off the market, time to stock up bitches!" So he buys cases of this stuff, AND IT JUST SITS IN HIS GARAGE? WTF!?
So for some unknown reason he like, he didn't take it, so what the fuck? Did he OD? does the shit not work? What kind of fuck nut would not indulge in bud laced morphine drink? Was it bunk? Did the company that manufactured these bottles sell bottles with nothing fun in them? I mean really? Who wouldn't drink this shit?
