Should Have Done it this Way - 1/16/2008 12:40:28 PM    OsiaBoyce Posts: 1755 Joined: 12/8/2005 From: Chinquapin, S.C. Status: offline Here's one I offered for the new book. After all those lable shots they wanted the whole bottle. Yall will see them again later. This ones right scarce. Last time I spoke w/ the evil Jimmie Wood he didn't have it. We were at a show Jimmie was set up I picked it up out of a box across from his table. He sees it and ask a guy he was speaking w/ to get it if I walked away from it. Little did he know that guy was w/ me. Was going to get it anyway. You could just catalog or make a book out of what Chris W. has. Does he lack for anything. Kinda like wankaJerry here who has about everything. Attachment (1) Post #: 1

The Sun Fun above is from Marion, S.C. 1958. When I get better light I'll try to get some more pics of some of my betters. Attachment (1) (in reply to thesodafizz) Post #: 3

RE: Should Have Done it this Way - 1/17/2008 7:15:52 PM    acls   Posts: 305 Joined: 6/2/2005 Status: offline Man Pat, I think everyone I know is sick right now.  Got a touch of it myself. I knew that Sun bottle was tuff, but seeing a pic of the whole bottle makes it even better.  I've always had a thing for the semi-squat bottles.  I think everyone's idea to use the whole bottles for the book is a good one. _____________________________ Always looking for unusual ACL versions of Nehi, Lemmy, Squeeze, Smile, Spiffy, RC, Coke, Pepsi, Dr. Pepper, Mountain Dew, Barq's, Frostie, 7up, and Sunrise.

RE: Should Have Done it this Way - 1/17/2008 9:22:47 PM    thesodafizz   Posts: 165 Joined: 1/13/2008 Status: offline When they requested at the meeting in Colinsville to have the whole bottle, I thought, ok, but it would take more space....   But it made sense.   Then when I got enough photos to do a "demo" page to see how many would fit, how to fit them, etc. - the look is awesome....   It really looks so much nicer than just the label.  Plus, many bottles have things on the shoulder, or a neat shape or embossing.   With the whole bottle, you get to see that too. Bottles are great Pat.  Thank you!  I've put them in your folder with the others. Look forward to seeing more when you feel better. Below is a low res image of the test page I did for sizing, how the bottle's will look / fit, etc. from some of the ones Chris Weide sent me.  You can see, even at low res, how great it looks to have the whole bottle.  In the high res, you can even read the names on the side of the bottle caps, it's so clear. Enjoy the preview.... < Message edited by thesodafizz -- 1/18/2008 10:56:49 AM > (in reply to acls) Post #: 17

I'll try to post some pics later this week.  Today is tune up day for the car so I'll be working on that most of today. _____________________________ Always looking for unusual ACL versions of Nehi, Lemmy, Squeeze, Smile, Spiffy, RC, Coke, Pepsi, Dr. Pepper, Mountain Dew, Barq's, Frostie, 7up, and Sunrise.
