"Made From The Original Coca-Cola Formula" - 3/3/2010 5:39:51 PM    celerycola   Posts: 1137 Joined: 2/20/2004 From: Alabama Status: offline I just picked up this Greenville SC bottle I've wanted for years. Embossed in the slug plate is: QUALITY BOTTLING WORKS My-Coca (in script) MADE FROM THE ORIGINAL COCA-COLA FORMULA GREENVILLE, S.C. That makes twenty different My-Coca bottles in my collection. Two I still need are Columbia KY and the short Greenville, SC without "Made From The Original Coca-Cola Formula". Attachment (1) Post #: 1

RE: "Made From The Original Coca-Cola Formula" - 3/4/2010 6:34:55 PM    celerycola   Posts: 1137 Joined: 2/20/2004 From: Alabama Status: offline It's a long and convoluted story involving a Civil War Veteran addicted to morpheme as a result of his wounds; a boy from Bacon Level, Alabama, who was too ambitious to stay on the farm; a scandalous divorce trial with adultery, insanity, and attempted murder; industrial espionage and double-cross; a Supreme Court Trial, bribery of a couple of U.S. Senators, private railcars and a mansion overlooking the Pacific Ocean, and other details that make "Gone With The Wind" seem like a short story. The only court that ever addressed the validity of the claim "Made From The Original Coca-Cola Formula" determined it to be legitimate. (in reply to madman) Post #: 7
