Thought I’d post some different acl sodas I have from the province of New Brunswick In Canada.
The first two bottles are from The International Drug Company St Stephen, NB.
A 6.5 oz that’s likely 40s and an 8oz from the 50s.
The 3rd bottle is a Bounce 8oz., which was bottled by Sussex Ginger Ale Ltd. of Sussex, NB. 50s era. D992F4A4-0FEA-4B3D-86E0-CA79A17CA835.jpegEA7B33A1-580C-43B9-B52B-64C7C2C0DC21.jpeg

have heard of the st Stephen bottles before , obviously heard of sussex ginger ale , haven't seen the bounce bottle though

always been kind of interested in New Brunswick bottles but I've never really managed to acquire any , seen some online I was interested in but with shipping and such , was an art deco I wanted last year but it was $60 which seemed way too high

never really seen much at the Toronto bottle show or at antique malls from NB unless its really common stuff , don't even have many books from NB , I have several from Nova Scotia but very few finds for NB books here but I find NS books at thrift stores here all the time

Cool Moncton bottle. Just down the road from our summer place. I dug a lot as a kid in the Albert and Hillsborough area of New Brunswick but never found too much. Still poke around when I have the chance.

New Brunswick is one of those odd places , I'd imagine people familiar with the area could do ok and find some bottles , for its small population it still has a fair number of different bottles

I've only been there once and that was years ago , I'd like to eventually acquire a couple NB bottles but not really sure which ones I'd be most interested in , if anything reasonable were to randomly appear at an antique mall here I might go for it

I like the Fellows stuff from St. John...long history with that company. I've got a pontiled Fellows...I believe that is the only pontiled bottle from New Brunswick but I could be wrong. Also have a Fellows pot lid.

do have some pictures of NB bottles on computer , there is another size / design of the Woodstock NB bottle very similar bottle as the tennant
think this version may be more common as I've seen it online a few times before

just did some google searches and came up with a green version too which appears to be less common

this bottle is from Campbellton NB which is in Northern NB along quebec border . smaller town but a long way from anything so makes sense it had its own bottler during the 30's > 60's

called Restigouche Beverages

is 3 different bottles I know of , one an acl bottle similar to others , a smaller maybe 7 oz bottle and an octagon embossed bottle , sorry I can't find a clear picture of it but its all I've managed to find but certain that's what it is
