Chocolate Flavored Mello 6 oz - 4/15/2012 10:18:58 AM    cowseatmaize Posts: 8456 Joined: 12/2/2004 From: Eastern Northwest West Central area of Mass Status: offline Here’s the story. I’ve reached a dead end on this. Some have chimed in but no one has heard of it. The way I figure is Mello Bottling Co of Niagara Falls commissioned this from Baker Bottling Works. SEE THIS original thread. I can take some more pics if the camera holds out but I've gone over it quite well. There's some dust and maybe a partial spider web. Otherwise, excellent! I don't often ask a $ question but I have to. I’m probably losing my job seeing my hours cut from 45 to 35 and last week 25 in the last month. Any thoughts? You want it or might it eBay well? I'll keep it if it's a $1-10 junker. _____________________________ I'm glad I'm older, I heard kids are born with helmets now in case the doctor drops them. Eric Post #: 1

It shows ginger ale and strawberry soda. What do you think? Any listing in the later "blue books" I've heard about. I also found this but the pic is from a deleted ebay list on google images. It didn't come out to well with the resizing. Attachment (1) _____________________________ I'm glad I'm older, I heard kids are born with helmets now in case the doctor drops them.

I just wish I could prove it. I still can't make a good enough connection to anything in Niagara, Poughkeepsie or elsewhere else. _____________________________ I'm glad I'm older, I heard kids are born with helmets now in case the doctor drops them.

I never seen that but it's a bookmark now. ID# 022829 shows the ebay cap and says Niagara Falls, 1926-39. I guess Niagara is back in the running too. If I could just nail down the B.B.W. zecritr, I don't remember if I ever listed it. It was still in the investigation stage last year when I started this thing. If I did I didn't get $5 for it 'cause it's still here. _____________________________ I'm glad I'm older, I heard kids are born with helmets now in case the doctor drops them.

Heymann was listed in the 1925 Blue Book as a supply firm located at 438 E 59th St in Brooklyn. I found no other listings for Heyman, Mello, or the Niagara Falls reference for the 1923 and 1925 resources I have. I found the following label but this seems to be a near beer with a different owner name. Attachment (1) (in reply to cowseatmaize) Post #: 13

It took me a while but I finally tracked down the Buffalo Bottling Works / B.B.W. It turns out it was located in San Rafael, California and not New York. It's the only B.B.W. I came across that was worth looking into and related to a bottling company. I'm sure there are others but they are currently eluding me. ??? Good luck. Bob The Buffalo Soda Works: Another company, the Buffalo Soda Works, also operated in San Rafael in the late 1800s. The town's soda works seemed to attract fires, for according to the San Francisco Chronicle, on September 22, 1896 a fire that broke out at the Buffalo Soda Works and “destroyed the main building and outhouses. The building was the property of A. Arbini and the soda works was conducted by J. Phelps.” http://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/b-san-rafael-california-soda-bottle-106804592 Attachment (1) (in reply to SODAPOPBOB) Post #: 16
