I would wash it up some with dish soap.Be very careful not to scratch it.  Don't use hot water. You can safely clean the label with Bar keepers friend. I'll bet it's worth $30 + (maybe a lot more) Maybe ACLS can tell us more about it.

I would you never know.  Clean it best you can and get good photos. The Big Chief that just sold for $799 was bought for a few dollars at an estate auction along with some common soda bottles. Whats the bottom say?

Your Ouachita louisiana big chief bottle is very common, worth around $10-$15, I've had quite a few of them. I sold a Vicksburg, MS big chief for $60 once, after that everyone got theirs out of the closet and now they go for around $20.

Just found a dirty one that sold for $10 at a live auction on ebay somewhere. I use to think all Big chiefs were worth a lot, I came across a case of different versions in OK somewhere, got home and they went for around $5-$10 each. I still will pick one up though if it's cheap just in case. I see so many going for top dollar and without a guide out there I just have to take a chance.
