Status: offline 		And finally Terry's. I've always wanted to add this one to my collection. Splurged a little for it, but still got a pretty good deal bundling it with the Carolina Moon.

Good to see GLASS MAN and DIG DUG in Rome.

Status: offline 		Thanks Mike. The Sparta Chero Cola is not too rare. The block letters are what you normally see, the slant cursive lettering would be much better...

Status: offline 		Chero Cola has some weird capacity listings. Including 7 oz, 7 ounces, 7 fluid oz, 7 fl ozs, 6 1/2 oz, 6 1/2 fl oz, 6 1/2 fl ozs, 6 1/2 flu oz, 6 1/2 fluid ounces, contents 6 1/2 fl oz, min cont. 6 1/2 flu. oz. There may be more. The only thing that is generally agreed upon is that 7 ounce versions were 1st then the 6 1/2 versions. The change to 6 1/2 probably occurred on Cheros in 1915 or 1916.

Celerycola may have more info on the subject.

Status: offline 		This has always been one of my favorite bottles along with the Flomaton AL Chero-Cola written in Pepsi script.

Here's the bottle chronology from the Chero-Cola book:

1912 Arch Script
1913 Angled Script
1914 Angled Block 7 ounce
1916 Angled Block 6 1/2 ounce
1923 Twist Chero-Cola
1927 Twist Chero (Cola removed due to lawsuit by Coca-Cola)

Moultrie GA was among the earliest Chero-Cola franchises issued the first year in 1912. The slug plate bottle was probably the first used there.
