Oh wow that 12 oz bottle is amazing, never heard of that one before either. I've never visited that museum before, wonder if it's on display.
I have 3 of these all green Felix bottles, haven't seen one before and can't seem to date or value them. Anyone have any ideas? Reads property of Felix bottling ltd on bottom with a D in a diamond (Dominion glass?) Anyone have or seen one before?Oh wow! This is the first example of that one I've ever seen. Do you know if any others exist? People from out of province might not appreciate that one, but it's almost without a doubt BC's most desirable (and valuable) ABM bottle, and I'd never heard of a surviving example until today. The Royal BC Museum, which has a collection of some of BC's best bottles, has a ginger ale version but not one of these (or didn't the last time I visited). Even in that condition, it's a really special bottle. Take good care of that one!
Is there anything embossed on the bottle itself? The label looks to me to predate the typical ginger ale label. I wonder if maybe there's an earlier ginger ale design as well. I notice there's some sort of ring on the neck, is it a reused Canada Dry bottle?
The Felix itself is embossed, no evidence that there was ever a label and doesn't look like a Canada Dry bottle because i have the green 7oz bottleI have 3 of these all green Felix bottles, haven't seen one before and can't seem to date or value them.
