Posted: Thu Nov 23, 2017 5:40 am Post subject: Small Labels on 2049 bottles...can you help? |
|
|
I'm trying to replicate one of the labels on a bottle from 2049:
You see the blue/red label on the first two bottles?
It's not clear enough to work out what it says to replicate this label properly.
A colleague and I think that the larger digits say:
S D E 2 A 5
We feel it's a warning or brand label.
In terms of what it could possibly say above those digits, what do you think?
It could be in English, Japanese or even the sporadic use of Hindi-like writing that appears in 2049. |

Is this of any help?
The small text along the top appears to say:
Los Angeles 40% (then something / something) 0.7L
The serial number seems to be S082D5 |

Nope, there is no 700ml SIZE bottle produced.
And I quote from the rep from Vetroelite:
Quote: | "The good thing of this item[Genny 500ml] is that it looks 700ml but it is only 500ml." |
That's just the label. I've uncovered more information now, specifically where this retails with alcohol in it.

FINALLY!!!!!
An obscure Hungarian brandy uses the Genny 500ml bottle. This appears to be the origin. |

Yes. Or a remarkable coincidence.
VetroElite were shown the picture of K's bottles and they identified their own bottle as the Genny 500ml:
Quote: | My name is ****** and I am the person in charge for the UK market for Vetroelite.
Very well done, I confirm that the first bottle and the second to last is our Genny bottle. |
I would think it unlikely that BR2049 prop makers went to Vetroelite. They are more likely to have found the bottle in Budapest.
Can be bought for around £23 here : https://palinka.hu/

I used a really old program called ArcSoft PhotoStudio 5 and just enlarged the image and increased the contrast and sharpness. |

I don't doubt you're correct white, since vetro only tend to supply in bulk it's likely that the brandy company just source the bottles from vetro. |

Hello White43,
maybe I'm too late but I'm quiet certain that the first line says
"LOS ANGELES 40% V/V 0.7L".
If you Google Image "Palinka" labels often use this method for the alcohol rate (XX% V/V). They use Arpad palinka witch is 40% so....
Hope it helps |

Yes quite late! We'd worked out the V/V, volume/volume
I found the Arpad Palinka as in the image shown half way up.
Thanks anyway. |

Any chance to see how your label looks? |
