For a few years, I concentrated on collecting syrup containers - jugs, cartons, cans, etc..  I collected several hundred, then moved on to something else, most are packed up now.  I unboxed a few over the weekend so I thought I'd share.  I especially like the Kraft and the Heinz!! Anyone else collect syrup containers?

I dug out this Coke syrup jug tonight.  It's not as common to find as the ones from the 50s/60s.  You can see someone wrote the date 6/29/37 on the label.

This is a great post wonkapete , thanks for taking the time to post them. You have some nice looking containers there. I have a few syrup jugs , but like everything else I have , they are where I can not get to them without some major effort.
    I helped a guy on a rehab of an old house in Ripley , Ohio year before last. It was owned by an attorney . In the basement of the house there were probably a dozen or so cases of Coca Cola syrup jugs with the fishtail labels on them still sealed with the contents in them. I started to ask him a couple of times if he would consider selling me one of them, but he was not all that friendly, so I decided I could live without one of them. They all looked as new as the day they were bottled.
