I reckon it was a machine bottle, as it has a round notch in the bottom.

Status: offline 		it was an ACL pepsi (some of their products such as "patio" also came in the twist bottle) without the label from the 60s and 70s

Status: offline 		I have never seen a swirl Pepsi like this with a paper label, and Lord knows, I drank from enough of them years ago, as I am sure that Joel did as well. Or at least I am thinking we are roughly the same age . Usually, if there was a label worn off, a Person can still see where it had been. Like Joel's bottle, mine is clean and slick, with not sign of label wear.

Status: offline 		it does indeed seem to be a 60's acl pepsi with the acl label missing, the bottle matches the one on my shelf. it appears to be hazy where the label would have been. i have heard of acl bottle labels falling off when dug up after a peroid of time. all the patio bottles i've seen had a linked diamond pattern in either clear or green.

Status: offline 		You are correct about the Patio's John. As for the Pepsi, Mine looks like it was never in the ground, and there is not sign at all of a label, the finish is just as slick and clean as can be.

Status: offline 		No one minds being corrected, as no one knows it all (well, maybe one), and you guys do it well.  You always consider each others feelings and that isn't a bad thing.

We all make mistakes! Hell, if we didn't travel a few wrong roads, we wouldn't find where were going to. It isn't what you say , it is how you say it that counts.

I will consider this a Pepsi bottle, from the 60's. Thanks, guys.

Joel

That is not a bad thing either. It is also hard on your dad. Even harder on your mother. My wife has been going through the empty nest syndrome. I am trying to get her more and more into bottles.
