Another update. I haven't seen too many bottles recently that interested me, but I picked up another Wainscott Bottle last week to go along with the others I have.

12oz Rippled Wainscott - Winchester KY

I've made a few additions over the past months, so I wanted to update my thread.

I picked up another (LEFT) Danville Bottling Works: Danville KY, A.L. bottles. This one does not have the Contents 6 1/2 FLOZ on it like the one on the right does.

Thanks, Bob. I've still been looking for that Pepsi Double Drum patent, but haven't found it yet.


I also recently made a deal with another collector and no longer have the Wainscott Bottles I previously posted.

I have acquired these bottles:

In part of my trade I got this, Corbin Ice and Carbonating Co. Inc. Corbin KY

I also picked up another H.C. Catron Steam Bottling Works. This one appears older than the one I already had.

I picked up a few additional bottles this week.

Roxa-Kola ACL, G.L. Wainscott - Winchester KY & an older Ale8 "It glorifies" bottle. I recently made a deal on my prior Wainscott Bottles and no longer have them. This two would have been great additions to the Wainscotts, but they are nice anyways.

Dunn's - Danville KY. Red Rock and Players ACLs from Williamsburg KY.

Richmond Bottling Works - Richmond KY:
I got this one because of the other 3 Richmond bottles I have. This one appears to be the oldest of the set. It's rough, but it exists.

I found this the other day regarding the Pepsi Cola drum bottle - its from a 1926 Illinois Glass Company catalog. I realize its not the Patent document you have been looking for, but it at least confirms the bottle was being produced in 1926 ...

Wow, thanks SPB. Interesting that they're making the Single Drum style, which wasn't the official design. I'd love to have a high res copy of the bottle to print.
