    Help with old San Francisco soda

    Recently I bought a lot of bottles, and the one I'm wondering about is to your right as you look at the photo. Most of the other bottles are modern sodas, but this one appears to have the tooled area below the crown that obscures the top of the seam line, which was characteristic of turn of the...

    Blue Standing Bass bottle

    This bottle has a lip-tooled top as evidenced by the concentric rings that obscure the top edge of the seams, so I'm guessing between 1880-1910. The base is an oblong, smooth octagon shape with the seam on the bottle's right running from the top of the octagon base to near the edge of the...

    Single bottle display case?

    My bottles are mostly ACL sodas which I have on regular bookcases and are not very valuable, but I do have one that is worth around $200. It is a 7oz that is 8.5 inches tall by about 2.25 inches wide. I was thinking of getting a single item display case like a lexan cover on a base to put it...
