RE: Ginger Ale Bottles wanted - 11/19/2006 2:12:37 PM    Ginger Ale collector   Posts: 112 Joined: 6/16/2005 Status: offline HI madman- The Wolverine is a nice bottle. What's odd about it is that it is from Toledo OH. The original company was in Detroit. I wonder if they had two bottling plants. There was also an ACL Wolverine Ginger Ale I'd love to find for my collection. Here's the Detroit version of the bottle which has the same logo on the neck, but a slugplate with the famous Michigan Wolverine. As far as the Vernor's you posted, the larger size is not that common to my knowledge, but a Vernor's expert might give us a better idea. Attachment (1) (in reply to madman) Post #: 186

RE: Ginger Ale Bottles wanted - 11/23/2006 6:00:20 PM    Ginger Ale collector   Posts: 112 Joined: 6/16/2005 Status: offline Mike- I never knew that Wolverine was sold as a flavor brand, but your bottles sure seem to prove that! So far it's Detroit, Grand Rapids, and Toledo. Wonder who was the first one? I'd lean towards Detroit, and maybe they sold the brand name Wolverine along with the ginger ale flavor extract to the other bottlers. Ginger ale was a tough flavor to make well, and some bottlers favored buying a successful brand's extract than trying on their own. As far as the unmarked bottles being flavors, that is probably true and one might find Wolverine bottle caps for Birch, Cherry, Kola, Orange, Sarsapirilla, Lime Rickey or any other popular ones of the day.

RE: Ginger Ale Bottles wanted - 11/23/2006 6:11:41 PM    Ginger Ale collector   Posts: 112 Joined: 6/16/2005 Status: offline Hi Pontil Meister, Yep, I am familiar with that bottle. Here is the bottle with the label. My example has an applied top (BIMAL- blown in mold applied lip). I believe that it was the last bottle Clicquot Club made before going to the machine made. The embossing on some of these is clearer than others. Yours may look like it reads N08, but it really is 1908. Some of the 1908 embossed ones were machine-made, I think. Thanks for asking about it.
