I found alot of Dr. Peppers while diving the past few days and have noticed all of them are the same except for one.  Most have embossed Dr. Pepper with a banner underneath and the clock on the opposite side  with a frosted looked in the clock.  the one that is differwent has embossed Dr. Pepper only on the fornmt and no hands on the clock just Dr. Pepper through the middle of iot and the frosted lookis only where the numbers are it is clear where it says Dr. pepper.  Is there a big difference in date   arthur

They are laying in what is called the new river here in southwest virgina.  The river runs from NC through VA into Wva by god.  every town back in the 20's and 30's up through the 60's had a dump right on the river.  If you know where to go you will find a bunch.  The river is dangerous every year 4 to 8 people drown-  arthur

Bluefield, WVA? The only time Dr. Pepper was being bottled in Bluefield, WV was in the late 1960's when Bluefield Coca Cola took over the franchise. They were indeed bottled in Bluefield VA; however, from the early 1940's till the late 1960's. Is is a painted label? You got a picture? By the way I would be interested in Bluefield Dr. Peppers myself, especially a Bluefield, WV.

This may  be a bit late in the posts, but I did a more detailed listing of the Dr. Pepper logos a couple or three years ago.   I went back and found it - and have uploaded a PDF file of them, for anyone who's interested, at:

To everyone who responded about the Dr. peppers .  when I get a chance I'll go through them and i'll let you know the locations.  Soory about the west virginia location .  Read it Wrong.  Madman i will have a bluefield va bottle for you.  Right now I dive every day and stack the bottles I find in my bottle room I will go through these and galdly trade bottle for bottle no cost except for shipping.    Like I said it takes me a little longer to get things done.  I used to be good on a surf board.  Still try to Goofy foot in the wheel chair.  Arthur

No problem about the mis reading of the town, I do wonder if there is an acl Dr. Pepper out there with Bluefield, VA on it. Have you found any of the green Dr. Pepper from Bluefield, VA in good shape? I have one but it's got a chip in it.
