Here's an extremely rare Brown Palace flask from Palisade Colorado.   James Purcell was also the owner of the Brown Palace saloon in Palisade, Colorado between 1905 and 1908 (prohibition hit Palisade a year earlier than in Grand Junction). The Brown Palace is said to have been named after the bartender, Robert S. Brown, and not the famous Denver Hotel. The saloon building, which still stands today at the northeast corner of 3rd and Main Street, was completed in October, 1905. Thus, the Brown Palace was only open for three years.  The Brown Palace bar fixtures, which were installed in October, 1905, originated from the Senate Saloon, 413 Main Street in Grand Junction, while the Senate got entirely new fixtures. The extremely rare Brown Palace “defender” flask, above, which comes in both pint and half-pint, was  another Purcell flask and is the only known embossed whiskey bottle from Palisade.  Other rare Brown Palace saloon collectibles include two different "Brown Palace" tokens, which were among the Senate tokens found at the Senate after it closed (which confirms that although mavericks, they are definitely attributable to the Palisade Brown Palace.
