Sneak a Drink!

During the 13 years that Prohibition laws were on the books, inventive Americans developed many ways to sneak a drink. Let’s look at a few: 

Walking sticks enjoyed a surge in popularity after men found they could conceal a good deal of alcohol inside a hollowed out stick with a screw top.

 

Ladies could take advantage of their high heels to insert a flask that carried enough for at least one drink.

 

And the ever popular garter flask suited many flappers.

 

The easiest concealment was probably a bulky coat. This woman seems to be wearing enough liquor for a party!

 

This young lady is ready for a big evening out.

 

The right coat could cover a lot of hooch.
