No need to be sorry. I was just wondering. LOL! I'm not completely attached to it, what are you offering in trade?

I'm seeing green this weekend, but its not from envy. I finally landed two bottles I'd been wanting for a while. The acl and deco Ale-8-1 from 1955 appears to have been the first acl the company used for the brand, they had been using a deco bottle prior to that from what I can gather. The Dew Beverages is one that I've wanted as a companion to my Mountain Dew collection, and it had to be in green, for obvious reasons.




The embossing seems to have been dropped in favor of a smooth bottle later on.

Thanks anyway, I only wanted this particular one, and maybe the deco if I can find it. Other than that no interest in ale-8-1 aside from drinking it now and again.

I passed on a Sprite thermometer very similar to this which was $75, but I liked the design of these, so when I spotted this one for $45 I grabbed it. It's the Tab version of the plastic thermometer produced by Coca-Cola in the late 60's or early 70's.

I went to Hillsville, VA on friday for their labor day flea market, I bought a few signs, and a few bottles. The first sign is this tin Good Grape sign that I had been wanting for a while, but never had the cash at the time I spotted it.

This is one that just happened to catch my eye, a paper sign for 3 Centa from the Gastonia NC franchise.

And the only local sign I picked up. The Leatherwood Company was a dairy in Bluefield West Virginia that started producing in the 1950's as far as I can tell. I have one of their bottles and a plastic crate, so when I spotted the dealer with two Leatherwood tin signs I had to ask about them, while the prices were pretty much normal, I just couldn't invest that much in a "hey that's neat" item so, I ask if they had anything else. They informed me that they had two cardboard signs, both of the same basic design, but one was larger than the one I bought. It is a Merry Christmas sign from the company which was small enough and cheap enough to justify my picking it up.
