PARAISO C.Z. Straight & Clear Coca-cola bottle - 5/4/2008 6:52:59 PM    GeorgiaVol   Posts: 130 Joined: 5/3/2008 Status: offline Is this bottle more valuable since it from a foreign location.  A friend of mine has one, and it looks just like my Barnesville bottle with PARAISO C.Z.

How rare it is.               2. Condition.                3. How bad some one want's it. So foreign or domestic that's my opinion.                                                                 Willy (in reply to GeorgiaVol) Post #: 2

The Army Corp of Engineers was incharge of digging the canal so I would consider any bottle marked with CZ an American as it would have been for use by the engineers there.. _____________________________ Warren Diggin down in Dixie, USA Work is for people who don't dig bottles President, Panhandle Cruisers http://www.panhandlecruisers.org/ (in reply to thesodafizz) Post #: 4
