The original read as follows: Good Old Black Panther Piss, manufactured by Ed Downs, Kalamazoo, Michigan. He started his “business” during Prohibition, hence the aged look of the above label. Ed Downs’ logo was of a black panther urinating on a tree in the moonlight. Ed Downs is my grandfather. Regards, Jane Downs Glad you like it, however, this is a not the original label.

Even though the Clarke Bro's chain of stores, in Pennsylvania, closed back in the 1920's I'm pretty confident that the piece of furniture you have was something my Grandfather, and his brother, sold in their large Scranton dept. store. I have never heard, or seen any evidence that they manufactured anything. Hope this helps a little in shedding more light on your wardrobe.
