Wishing Well Drinks became the flagship brand of National Dry Limited, headquartered in London, Ontario. In 1933, three businessmen purchased the assets of Alfred Tune Limited, the bottler of National Dry Ginger Ale, and formed National Dry Limited. They opened two additional bottling plants in...
I obtained this "quart" with label from another collector a few months ago. The same collector had an embossed 10 oz bottle that went to a third party. I'll see if he is okay with posting pics of that as well.
