How accurate are these, is there a chance some of the old bottles on eBay came from these sources?
I wonder if they're the correct size, and what date or bottle co. logos are on them.

One of my very favourite flavours, from the '70's up until now continues to be Lime Crush. Just this week I was rincing out a bottle I had just emptied, when I noticed that the label had changed (for hallowe'en). Slime!
I came across a 170 ml free sample bottle of 7-UP. This paper label bottle is embossed NON-REFILLABLE (in English and in French) but the label mentions a refund.
Text on the bottle: THAN YOU BRITISH COLUMBIA FOR MAKING 7-UP THE NUMBER ONE SELLING SOFT DRINK...
Some very dusty bottles stuck in a corner, but they washed up alright. The Tonic Water is 1968, the other two are 1967.
No city, but most likely the local Vancouver Gray Beverage company, by Dominion Glass.
Another bottle pulled from years of sitting in the barn. The Niagara Dry Ginger Ale labels are identical on both sides of the bottle, nothing else is printed. The bottom says "PEPSI-COLA CANADA LTD" It looks like Dominion Glass. No date though. There is a "86", but the bottle has been...
Something that I brought in from the barn, but had to clean up. It had a lot of white dots from when I painted the barn about 13 years ago.
Bottom has a 1964 date, with a note that the bottle design was registered in 1956. Dominion Glass. Back of the bottle says Toronto.
I haven't seen...
Although I'm not an avid collector, I did pick up a few oddballs when I was younger, but stopped before it was able to take over my life and storage area:)
Here's a Coca-Cola bottle from Casablanca. Note the size - it's not 6 oz. but rather 19 cl. (centilitre) which works out to 6.43 oz...
How often do you see a bottle that's been repainted? Here's an old 6.oz Schweppes Bitter Lemon bottle. But you can see under the white paint that it was originally labelled "Dry Ginger Ale".
