    Another 7up Thread ... But Different

    Yep, here I go again with another 7up thread! But this time I'm in search of ... The earliest 'date marked' 7up bottle Most of us know our 7up basics and that 7up is documented as early as 1928. But what about the bottles themselves? Is anyone aware of a 7up bottle, which would have had a...

    I'm usually pretty good at finding things but I can't find anything whatsoever regarding this Orange Crush bottle that a friend found in the California desert and gave to me. Its a 6 Ounce clear krinkly with the patent date of July 20, 1920 embossed on the front. On the heel it is embossed with...

    Most valuable acl soda bottle in your area

    This forum contains an almost endless number of discussions about this-and-that acl soda bottles, but as far as I know there has never been a thread devoted solely to the most valuable, most sought after acl soda bottle in a specific locale, city, town. Every time I attend a bottle show or walk...

    7up BOTTLES ~ OUTSIDE THE BOX

    I've come up with some crazy stuff before but this one is likely to be the craziest of them all. So please keep this confession in mind during the course of this thread as I openly admit this is pretty far fetched. But then again, maybe not. Maybe I've discovered something that has been right in...

    PACIFIC COAST GLASS WORKS/COMPANY ~ SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA ~ CONFUSING MAKERS MARKS

    This is a spin-off from member Andy Volkerts thread I participated in regarding his Haywards Soda Works deco bottle. During the course of that discussion it was disclosed that Andy's bottle was made by the Pacific Coast Glass Works of San Francisco and marked with a PC in a Triangle. In this new...

    BIB LABEL ~ WHAT IS IT AND/OR WHAT DOES IT MEAN?

    I received a PM recently and was asked what a "bib label" was? Of course, the first thing that comes to mind is ... "Bib-Label Lithiated Lemon-Lime Soda" Which is what 7up was originally called before...

    FAN TAZ ~ THE DRINK THAT HELPS YOU THINK

    I recently participated in a forum thread about a Escambia Pepsi-Cola Hutchinson bottle, and during the course of my research came across a brand of soda called Fan Taz. I had never heard of it before but noticed it was one of the brands sold by the Escambia Pepsi Cola Bottling Company in...

    GLENSHAW GLASS COMPANY ~ PENNSYLVANIA ~ BOTTLE DATE CODES ~ BRIEF HISTORY ~ ETC.

    I've been talking about starting this thread for at least a week now but because of the overwhelming amount of information I found, it delayed me in posting it. My biggest challenge was to try and glean the information into a simple format without getting too far afield with stuff that was of no...

    BIG CHIEF SODA BOTTLES ~ EARLIEST & LATEST ~ EMBOSSED & ACLs

    This is a work in progress which I will be adding to as time goes by. I encourage contributions because my collection of Big Chief's is limited and I will need help from other members to fill in a lot of gaps, especially with the non-acl embossed Big Chief's which I do not have as I currently...

    The following pertains to a thread by member jblaylock from March of 2013 and his Wallins Creek Bottling Works bottle from Wallins Creek, Kentucky. In a recent communication with Josh, I promised him I would see if I could find anything else related to the bottle that wasn't discussed in the...

    A man named John Vergo of Albuquerque, New Mexico found a 130 year old John Pemberton "French Wine Coca" bottle (with it's original paper label) at a flea market that he only paid $4.00 for and ended up selling at auction for $13,750.00.

    ATTENTION! FORUM MEMBER squirtbob ~ EARLY SQUIRT BOTTLING NEWSPAPER ADS

    Hey, squirtbob Long time no see. I hope all is well in Squirtland. Note: I intended to post this on the thread I started back in September of 2012 where we discussed Citrus Club and early Squirt bottlers, but I could not see where it was possible to reply to that thread. Maybe older threads...

    LIST OF OVER 300 COCA COLA IMITATORS AS OF 1919

    I found this article in a 1919 newspaper archives and it might be the most comprehensive list of so called Coca Cola imitators ever published. I say "so called" because I'm not sure that every one of them can be considered a true imitator. Nor do I know how many of them the Coca Cola Company...

    ATTENTION! TENNESSEE COCA COLA COLLECTORS

    If you are a serious Tennessee Coca Cola collector and have a few bucks to spare, you better grab this sign while it's still available. I can't say for certain that it's original, but it sure looks like it is. And if it is original, I doubt there are very many of them around and it might even be...

    THE ONE THAT GOT AWAY

    Buckman Springs Lithia Water ... I have been hunting, digging, and buying soda bottles for about 40 years and still recall my first dig in the early 1970s when I was about 20 years old which was at the long abandoned ruins of a local bottling plant that began operation in 1875 and shut down...
