1944 WW2 clear Coke Bottle Question
The 1940-1961 Canadian Dominion hobbleskirts I consider quite common. They can typically be found in miscellaneous boxes for about $5 or so. Consumes bottles are much more scarce. 1920-1935 are near impossible to find. Especially if you want a specific variety. I have about 10 different bottles...- fanboy

RARITY vs DEMAND vs AGE vs CONDITION = VALUE
Just to throw a little more food for thought... wrt: "what makes one bottle more valuable than another? " The short answer is 2 more more people want it. Which does lead towards demand; however this is not as simple as it seems. There are bottles that have say 50 unique bidders but sells...- fanboy

RARITY vs DEMAND vs AGE vs CONDITION = VALUE
Interesting topic. I have not considered price guides for any of my collections for about 10+ years. A senior collector in my opinion is one that knows the market and either knows what previous items have sold for or comparable. I have about 6000 recorded sales plus auction catalogs, etc. I...- fanboy

Looking to sell NEHI(1927) Christmas cokes(the real deal)
Kid, Another interesting thing about Coca Cola bottles from Hamilton, On; Hamilton is one of only 5 cities that actually have period named bottles. There is a Quart sized bottle from Hamilton. It is probably the 2nd rarest Canadian Coke bottle. Where are some regular Straight sides from...- fanboy

Looking to sell NEHI(1927) Christmas cokes(the real deal)
Can Kid, Once the move was made to disposable bottles, small bottlers did not need to own and have returned the bottles for refilling. Thus any throwaway bottler with a name on it is generally just for nostalgia. As for your Canadian Hamilton, On; yes it is a random city. All glass bottles...- fanboy

French Pepsi?
All Canadian Pepsi's of this style are clear glass. The Aqua ones like you posted are from France. (CL -Centiliter is also a giveaway, we don't use CL in Canada) As for age; I would guess 80's of 90's. I remember seeing them is use at the hotels in 1990. Chris- fanboy

OWENS ILLINOIS ~ NEED HELP WITH IMAGES
If you are desperate to get the "Enlarged" photos I can suggest a rather awkward way to do it... If you look at the page source and search for "Dsc" you should be able to find the file names. The lines that are found are for the thumbnails. To see the larger image take the Dsc file name and...- fanboy

7up Glass
According to their web site the use of "Uncola" started in 1967; so that should be the earliest possible date for the cup. http://www.7up.com/page/history/ $25 for a plastic cup seems steep to me... Chris- fanboy

QUICK "POPEYE SODA" QUESTION
The google books link says Pepsi tried to by the strip; which means to be they wanted to by all rights to Popeye. (Like Dairy Queen bought Denis the Menace) It would appear that Pepsi was not interested in a licensing agreement. I doubt Porto Rico would try and buy Popeye, they would have tried...- fanboy

DATING OWENS-ILLINOIS BOTTLES
I would consider if there was doubt creating a new mold that the maker would provide accurate mold information on it. Dots could simply mean that the information next to it is inaccurate. For example in Canadian coins in 1937 & 1948 new dies were not ready so the mint used the previous year's...- fanboy

QUICK "POPEYE SODA" QUESTION

QUICK "POPEYE SODA" QUESTION
How common is it on US advertising to just use "Trade Mark" or "Trade Marks" as used on the Popeye Soda artifacts? I would have expected "US PAT Reg Off" on them. I typically associate the use of "Trade Marks" with products from the 80's and 90's.- fanboy

QUICK "POPEYE SODA" QUESTION
While following this thread I have often thought it likely that the few Popeye Soda items are Fantasy items and there was never such a product. Bob, Have you considered following the business side of the equation to determine if the drink actually existed? 1. Trade Mark, there would...- fanboy

Any help would be appreciated
Bottles 5&6 appear to be Canadian. They have both English and French. The volume is on both ml and Fl Oz; that dates the bottles to 1974-1976. They are rare that clean, most of those are typically beat to hell with case wear. Unfortunately there is not a ton of demand for them. Chris- fanboy

Pepsi hutch for sale on eBay - undisclosed damage
It appears that the 2nd question praising the bottle is a shill question. The question has similar "typo" mistakes as his answers. So I looked a little more into the bidder; it appears the bidder is stbuck77, and if you look at the bidder, worldofcocacola is the only person they have dealt with...- fanboy
