    Painting embossed lettering?

    What's the general opinion on this? I have a few straight sides that are cloudy enough to need the embossment painted. I resisted because of altering the bottle. One is special because it is a ss Coke from my hometown. If you paint, what color do you use? I know I could use any color. I suppose...

    The next Schmidt auction is...

    I'm hearing that March 22, 2013 will be the LAST auction to the bare walls. This came via the sister publication to Soda Spectrum. Sorry I don't know the name, Cola Conquest maybe? I didn't go to last weeks auction but I thought the stuff at the back room store was rather pricey. 2 display...

    cleaning the crud

    So risking that this will get moved or make someone mad for posting to the wrong forum... Is there an easy way to get the dried crud off the inside of ACLs? I mostly mean the bottom inside. Do I need to invest in specialized brushes? Or what kind of brush do I need from the hardware store? I...

    Double Line

    Anyone heard of this company? I think the bottle I saw said Seminole Flavor (?) Co. and listed a Georgia address. I didn't buy the bottle, that is why I am being so vague. It has a diamond shaped logo. For some reason I automatically think Double Cola when I saw it. Ever see any cartons or other...

    Petretti's Price Guides

    Has anyone heard of an updated edition of either Petretti's Soda Pop guide (last pub. 2003) or his Coca-Cola guide (2008). He used to put out the Coke one every 2 years. It has been 4 years now and it has been 11 years for the Soda Pop guide. I supposed he has been busy. I know he got canned...

    J. F. Lazier

    Has there ever been any research done on the man? Creator of many soda flavorings. What did he look like? Any photos of the manufacturing facility? Just history of the company in general. Seems like a part of soda history lost. I have seen "some" info published like his role in Sundrop, Mil K...

    looking for a "fan" site

    Does anyone know of a fan site for TaB? I had one some time ago and deleted it cause I didn't use it much. I am wanting to compare TaB logos. I have some bottles with blue logo and white trim around letters. Looking to date them as there are no dates on the bottom. Just the Chattanooga Glass...

    Is a bottle a COMMON if...

    ...one doesn't have any in their collection? I see "common" used by seasoned collectors. I haven't really found bottles for under 5 bux for many years. Then, again, I have been out of bottle collecting for just as long. To me, a Chocolate Soldier is not common because I haven't seen any for...

    Crush bottle date?

    Can someone tell me when Crush bottles were made with a "twisted glass" look? Sorry I don't have a picture right now. It is 16 oz and is a money back bottle. I believe it is pretty modern but I do not see number markings on the base. There is a heart embossed on the base. Oh, and the glass is...

    St. Louis

    Checked the show forum, nothing there yet. Have the dates for the next St.Louis, MO show been announced? I went to one last year in, I think, March. I am not a regular attendee so I do not know if this is an annual show. By the way, dealers...I would like to see more "go-withs", bottle caps...

    Forgive me for not posting in the buy,sell,swap section but since this is specifically soda... I would like to obtain 2- late 69s early 70s Sprite cartons for 10 oz. bottles. I would assume that these would have the original "shield" logo. Send picture/price to me ewaldsbarbq@hotmail.com...

    Anyone collect patches?

    Soda related but not bottle related thread. Sorry. Maybe an unusual question here. I have seen alot of different soda brands on patches to be used on, I assume, delivery drivers' uniform shirts. My question is, have you ever seen a uniform shirt (or even a picture ) with an oddball brand on it...
