I through it was a ketch up at first but it had a shape like a bowling pin. Christo - Cola Bottling Co. from Wiston Salem NC. Has a cool Sun on it. After cleaning the dirt off I saw it had a hit right in the sweet spot. Does anyone have any Info on this Cola. I like still.

RE: Christo 10 pin soda - 2/1/2012 11:04:15 AM    L C   Posts: 3435 Joined: 3/17/2007 From: Ohio Status: online Thanks Judo . If I remember right , I saw one of those on eBay from North Carolina bring somewhere in the neighborhood of 230 dollars . I listed mine with a reserve of 100 and it only brought 85 . Since then I have seen them sell on eBay for a whole lot less maybe in the fifties range ? I think one also brought thirty five . One just never knows about eBay . (in reply to judu) Post #: 6

There is a Christo from Front Royal , Va. , that sold for $60 . There was another from Virso Va . that brought $78 . Another stained one from Gastonia NC  that brought $19 . I guess there were several plants around in different states . (in reply to L C) Post #: 7
