Yesterdays Finds - 5/10/2005 11:36:06 AM    JohnRoy   Posts: 148 Joined: 3/9/2005 Status: offline Yesterday, my sister-in-law had her bridal shower, and I slipped away to look on the farm for some bottles behind the old general store. I went though all of the bottles and finally found some Pepsis from the 40's, which is what I have been looking for particularly in there. I found 2 Red, White, and Blue ACL's from 1947 and 1948 (Augusta, GA, and Rock Hill, SC). I also found a Fountain Syrup Pepsi Red and White Bottle from 1942 (Long Island, New York). The guide said that it is worth $35, but I wonder if I could get that much. I found an amber Orange Crush, an embossed Dr. Pepper with a clock on the back, Blue Ridge Soda, something called 5 Points (embossed), Dixie Dew, Icy Brook, Buddy's, and a Frostie Good Tasting Root Beer to name a few. -John Post #: 1
