State Liquor Sales Third-Highest in Ohio History
Ohio Director Richard C. Crouch announced that 1960 liquor sales in state stores and agencies ranked third for 28 years of records, with only 1957 and 1959 higher. Revenues were projected to surpass 1959 by over 4.5 million dollars due to a 10 percent price hike in 1959 and a full year of 1960 tax policy. The year ended with sales totaling 219,948,359 dollars, just under 220,819,224 dollars in 1959.
