My bottles that are twice as old have never chipped or clouded themselves up due to their age. (in reply to celerycola) Post #: 2

Stated that it was a company that was in competition with Coca Cola years ago , and that Coca Cola even took them to court concerning the name and won . Might be wrong though .

At least you'd think someone would have the professionalism to spell correctly if you're expecting them to spend that much money on something. Just sayin'. (in reply to L C) Post #: 4

I've seen misspellings of the brand name before, the most common is Coco-Cola. This shows up in several references in my area, and they are referring to Coca-Cola. _____________________________ My website chronicling the soda bottling companies of the Southwest Virginia or Northeast Tennessee area including Bluefield, Princeton, and Rock West Virginia www.tazewell-orange.com NEW ARTICLES: Just say Mil-Kay the story of Mil-K-Botl (in reply to celerycola) Post #: 7

The bottom is clearly marked Coca Cola. It is a Coke bottle with a misprint, nothing more nothing less. It may pretty cool to own, but considering the huge amount of crazy misprints that made its way on the early 1900 bottles it is, in my opinion, nothing special. Besides that there is (as far as I know) no town, and a fairly ugly bottle. $10-$15 < Message edited by T D -- 1/20/2012 7:51:07 PM > _____________________________ Always looking for ACLs and Georgia Chero Colas (in reply to morbious_fod) Post #: 8
