    Firecracker flask

    I picked up a firecracker flask GI-14 for $74. It is light aqua in color and has a crack about an inch long. No missing glass. Has some hard water stains that should clean up. This is my first significant flask. Im pretty excited about it. I am mainly an insulator guy who is crossing to bottles...

    Are These Insulators?

    Thanks for the reply! I was thinking that also, but without any other embossing or a place for a paper label I thought it strange to put another flavor. Thanks for info. I learn something new everyday! Thanks again!

    Are These Insulators?

    Yes. I think they are. If you want to check a site; try National Insulator Association internet site. Then click on IDENTIFICATION for FOREIGN. I am pretty sure they are not north American. I am new to this site. I have some pictures of a coke bottle. I cant find out how to post. So here are a...

    Coca Cola Bottle found. Whats the deal??

    Thank you Red!! I did the Chattanooga bottle show a month or so ago. I brought the bottle and had a fun time hearing all the opinions. Most agreed that it was done at the factory. Some kind of "Just messing around" bottle, altered mold. The official estimator their said the bottle was around a...

    Coca Cola Bottle found. Whats the deal??

    Im with ya on the insulators. It really bums me out to see the altered insulators. Im much more of an insulator guy than I am a bottle guy. On this bottle, I really think you have to hold it in your hand. The picture is deceiving. (Bottle from first post). The seems are perfectly straight. And...

    Coca Cola Bottle found. Whats the deal??

    Sorry couldn't figure out how to add the new photos to the first post. This is the bottle I spotted on line. This bottle was posted a year ago on a different web site with no responses.

    Coca Cola Bottle found. Whats the deal??

    I found a very similar bottle. I have attached pictures of a bottle that is exact shoulder and embossing. The only difference is the Greenville on Bottom and mine is Sedalia. Ours both have the same thick bottom. I am thinking these are prototypes or errors made by Coca Cola. Would love more...

    Coca Cola Bottle found. Whats the deal??

    Jimbo, Being this has all the embossing of the PAT D, why would you think something as current at silk screening? Thanks for your help.

    Coca Cola Bottle found. Whats the deal??

    Thanks Jimbo, most are saying what you said and I would agree. Thanks for all the help. I just retuned from a bottle show and there was a lot of excitement. Several of the old timers, if you will, said there is no distortion anywhere so it is not a reheated bottle. Also the seem is perfect top...

    Coca Cola Bottle found. Whats the deal??

    Some other information that makes me think it may be an altered coca cola mold: If this was heated outside the mold, it seems to me there would be some distorted embossing, distorted top, not tons of glass in the bottom. All dimensions are perfect when it comes to the ribs, rib hight and mouth...
