I'm thinking prohibition era?
embossed on front reads "federal law forbids sale or reuse of this bottle"
"Exporters White Horse distillers Ltd Glasgow Scotland"
Embossing on the bottom reads " X

Just after prohibition. I have several, if it was prohibition there would be no bottle since you could not have liquor.

That wording didn't go on bottles until 1933 and lasted until 1964, using Etsy to date anything is not a good idea, it's like using the want ads to learn how to bake a cake...

Your flask is typical of the 1930-40's era
