Hi all,
This is my first post about vintage bottles. I've spent the better part of the last 2 days reading the wealth of information on here. I hope I am posting in the right location for this.
About 20 years ago I picked up this bottle at an antique market. The seller had it there for several weeks and I eventually picked it up.
The seller was not a collector and couldn't provide any details on the bottle. It looks old, is made to a much lower standard than we'd expect today, but is in pretty good condition (in my opinion anyway).
I paid about $50 for it then. The seller was not sure if it was real or not, so I decided to pick it up and have never been able to find any information on it.
It has a very early "Coca-Cola" script on the top, and "TORONTO, ONT." at the bottom (but not "on" the bottom).
I've been unable to date it, other than it's probably turn of the century. I don't know if finding information on it has been tough due to it being a fake, or because it's Canadian and there isn't a lot of information on Canadian-specific Coke stuff.
So, what I was looking to answer is,
- Is it real or a fantasy piece?
- What's the age on it?
- Does anyone have any other ones like this?
- Is it rare?
Thanks, Ryan
