A couple of toughies for sure!... I have been eying up a few variations from H.P.'s over the years, embossed and ACL's but never managed to acquire any until I landed this paper label , never seen it before!earlier in the week. It was put out by Standard Mineral Water Works, North Battleford, Saskatchewan. The graphics are wonderful on it!...check out the swastika boarder. I have no info on the company.

Was pretty happy to land the King's ginger beer from Winnipeg too....never seen it before either, I have the matching flavor bottle in clear glass with blue and white ACL.

The more common of the three is the Prince Albert Mineral Water Co. Limited ....has a neat graphic on the back, although a generic bottle I'm still happy to finally ad one to my collection.

I've seen similar bottles to the prince albert one but not in white ink , that's a bit more unusual . the one's I've seen are embossed .
the kings ginger beer looks kind of similar to the common o keefe's ginger beer bottle from the 30's-40's , at least in terms of size and colour

Yea there is a few like the Prince Albert one, I doubt I've seen all the western Canada ones yet. This is the four that I have...would like to keep adding to this style.
Yes the O'Keeefe's were 10oz as well , yup similar bottle...I think the King's exact design was exclusive to them. I see on the Tim Maitland site has a set of four paper label O'Keeefe's...did they come as an ACL I wonder?
