So fake it's not even funny...

I'm jumping in here at the end of this, I have been reading from beginning and after all of this I'm probably more mad than I should be. The evidence leads straight to a real a$$hole that needs to be stopped. The unsuspecting collectors will learn eventually but all the profit he makes off the...

Warren, We drifted off topic a little [;)] but that happens on this forum sometimes. If you ever make it to the Waco area just pm me, I'll take you fishing and we might find some bottles while we're at it! The history of the pony express in Texas is my next search.

Thanks Sam... Looks like you are having fun! You should be getting your KOB today. I'm going to continue my search this weekend. Hope you and Brad find the mother load. I was reading the thread about arrowheads etc. I have found several large ones while fishing the Brazos.

Warren, Good news, I was hoping you would shed some light on this bottle. I've contacted many people around Waco/Temple area that are collectors or archivists, some for the DP museum. I found Sam Hamilton the pony express rider but not sure of the connection. The Hamilton with the railroad...

I've searched everywhere, asked everyone I know to ask. Sent pm to capsoda. Searched Temple history sites, court records, county records and archives.....nothing. Looks like there are no records of this company or person, online or in court records. Eventually something has to come...

I've been very busy with my work and trying to get ready for the holidays. I went down river 2 days ago and found more debris. More of the same, lots of pieces, they are not getting bigger and the trail is not getting narrower as I move upstream. I'm getting bottle pieces from both sides. I...

Need info on a soda bottle...

RE: Big 4 Waco celerycola, Thanks for the information, sounds like these big 4 bottles were not around for long. Shame the top is missing, but there may be more where that one came from. The book you reference is it available at book stores? Amazon.com? I appreciate your taking time to reply.

Dr Pepper syrup cans

Thanks morbious_fod, great point.... I've known there were bottles with DP on them but these were for flavored sodas bottled by Dr Pepper bottlers. As the Dr Pepper beverage distribution grew and Bottlers across the country opened franchises, so did competition. The early Dr Pepper bottlers...
