My paper label 7up bottle arrived today and I think I have figured out the bottlers name. But because I'm right in the middle of cleaning out a storage shed and have stuff scattered all over my deck, I don't have time to say more at the moment but will definitely be back later with more information - part of which will totally boggle your mind!
Unfortunately, this is all I have time for at the moment, but it should be enough to whet your whistle until later. I still have a lot of research to do, and some pictures to take, but I'm pretty sure I'm on the right path ...
Here's the mind boggling part I mentioned earlier. Its another Tyler Brothers bottle - but what is it? Among other things, notice the white swimsuit girl, not to mention the threaded bottom. It appears to be an 8 bubble bottle from circa 1937-1938. If this isn't a one-of-a-kind bottle, then I don't know what is!
1. There is an NP on the edge of the bottle cap but I don't know what it stands for yet.
2. The embossing on the base is definitely not a 3, and looks more like an 8. However, if it is an 8, its not a normal looking 8. It actually looks more like a & symbol than it does an 8 or anything else. But I have no clue yet what a so called & symbol might stand for!
