Labatt's 50 Ale Anniversary long neck bottle value?

Does anyone know an approx value on this bottle, seems to be a few variations of the label, this one is oval, Taverntrove had one (just label + neck tag) a while back in rectangular shape for 20 unused. Are the labels worth more off the bottle? I may have a chance to get it but don't want to over pa...

Thanks for the info Ron, when in doubt ask an RB'er :smt023 ....just out of curiosity I asked if the labels were authentic or reproduction...She stated that they got the bottle a couple of years ago and as far as she knows it's real. So what next reproductions will become acceptable by new collector...

As far as date on yours probably similar to my bottle when I first got it I was told circa 1925.....but ...
