These novelty decanters first appeared shortly after the acquisition of Shulton by the American Cyanamid Company in 1972.   These bottles are not to be confused with Avon Products.  Avon sold men's fragrances in a wide variety of interesting decanters, but they never sold Old Spice.  To assist with identification, the Product ID is listed where known.
