Single bottle display case? - 3/13/2005 1:00:38 PM

My bottles are mostly ACL sodas which I have on regular bookcases and are not very valuable, but I do have one that is worth around $200. It is a 7oz that is 8.5 inches tall by about 2.25 inches wide. I was thinking of getting a single item display case like a lexan cover on a base to put it in and I was wondering if anyone had any ideas on what may work best? I know they make cases for Beanie Baby? bears, maybe Barbie dolls? I'm just wondering if anyone knows anything before I wander around the web for hours.

Thanks,
Shane

Hello Shane. I'm with Brian, a.k.a flassher. I think a dome would look cool. AND I'd love to see your bottle! I also collect and enjoy ACLs and that gives them all the 'value' they need. Some of us are trying to get a forum going for ACLs (see the thread in the Coke and ABM forum) and I'm sure your voice added to the chorus would be very welcome. Thanks!

Hey people,

I think my sister-in-law has some of the beanie cases, so I'll have to check those for fit. Or maybe I'll run across an empty clock dome or some such thing.

The bottle I'm referring to is a rare Barney and Alley Mountain Dew bottle in near mint condition! Only a few little fleabites I could find. Label is excellent. The guy I bought it from acquired several of the large collectors bottles when they sold them and he sold this one on ebay. Here is the ebay pic of my bottle, as I have yet to buy a digital camera:
