zetz soda - 8/5/2011 1:04:05 PM    #1twin   Posts: 751 Joined: 5/25/2006 From: Biloxi Ms Status: offline I just picked up a nice deco ZETZ bottle from a construction site. It is from New Orleans and I think it dates around 56 judging from the mark on the heel of G5556. It also has 7-UP BOT. CO. on it. With a heat index over 110 here on the coast, all I could do was walk around scouting the grounds for bottles and marbles. I scored 4 marbles and a hand full of bottles. This was my best bottle because I have never seen one before. I can't wait for the weather to cool down enough for a dig.  Thanks for looking,  Marvin Attachment (1) Post #: 1

It would be great to get a 6 oz one now that I have learned there is one. Yeah fishnuts.....I like to never have gotten the whole thing in the truck  Thanks for the replies and info.   Marvin (in reply to bottleopop) Post #: 5
