Hi All, please ignore my previous post.. the bottle is leaking from the cap! Therefore I wouldn’t be happy giving it away!

I have just inherited a bottle of Findlaters Dry Fly. Can anyone tell me anything about it. Is it worth hanging onto or selling?

Anyone remember the amusing campaign for this sherry that ran in the mid-1960s? The ads consisted of an image of somebody desiring a drink, with a short rhyming caption. One was of a man holding a hammer; the caption read "DIY? - Dry Fly!"
So many people wrote in with their own suggestions, Findlater's decided to make a competition of it. The winning entry showed a burglar sneaking out the window, joyfully grasping a bottle, with the caption "Other's buy? - Dry Fly!"

My father always drank Dry Fly and it was still available a couple of years ago although the square bottle has been replaced by an ordinary round one. Am trying to track it down
