Vintage Jim Beam Harolds Club Reno Slot Machine Whiskey Decanter

This is a vintage 4/5 quart ceramic whiskey decanter produced by the James B. Beam Distilling Co. for Harolds Club Casino in Reno, Nevada. The vessel is designed to resemble a classic mechanical slot machine, featuring a white and sky-blue glazed finish with black and gold accents. The front displays 'HAROLDS CLUB' in blue block letters above a circular medallion featuring a stylized 'H'. Below this, the word 'RENO' is prominently displayed. The hardware includes a non-functional gold-tone plastic or metal lever on the side with a black ball tip, still bearing a cautionary 'DON'T PULL HARD' sticker. The top of the decanter features a tall, round finial that serves as the stopper, showing some visible wear around the neck area. The base includes an original gold and black foil label indicating it contained 86 proof Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey aged for 110 months. The craftsmanship is typical of 1960s-1970s novelty ceramics, exhibiting high-gloss glazing and crisp relief molding. Visible condition issues include minor shelf wear on the base and slight discoloration or adhesive residue near the neck stopper.
