hey i found this pepsi cola bottle  and well it doesnt have any dots between pepsi and cola and its embossed letters saying pepis cola but the words pepsi cola are going up the bottle in curvy lines not they hole way up it like right before it starts to get smaller for the top of the bottle. im not really good with this ive tried looking up stuff about it but i cant find anything. Its 9 1/2 inches tall im not sure how many oz but it  says on the bottom pat. 120 277 82 b43 14 des. thats about all i can tell so if u could help me by telling my how old and how much it is it would help greatly

Hi X21 and welcome to the Forum!  If possible post a pic of the Pepsi bottle - that will help folks with dating and giving a value for the bottle.  You can also check out this Pepsi site for some info.

I'd say it's worth whatever someone is willing to pay.

I was hoping to see one that a friend dug part of. It had Pepsi embossed on it but it went from mid way up the bottle and part way around the neck and was a pale blue. Not aqua. It was from Mobile, Al. Never seen a whole one.

Some of those came with paper lables when they first came out.

acl is applied color label, or painted label. If its the same bottle but without the paint, or label it wouldnt be worth anything, the one in the pic is probbly in to bad of shape to get anything out of, it is common.

capsoda- sounds like an awesome bottle Id like to see one someday.
