A few Mississippi bottles..

Digger, I'll start off with my 'Cotton' bottle that I haven't seen mentioned in your thread. It's from Jackson. The O-So Grape is from Bay St. Louis.

The back of Dixieland is neat - it shows all the 'big' cities:

The Kik is from Centreville, Miss:

All different Biedenharns that aren't aren't so common:

A soda water from Biedenharn.. and a Hancock Bottling Works bottle from Bay St. Louis:

An old milk bottle that lists all the towns in area - Gulfport, Pass Christian, Biloxi, Bay St. Louis, Pascagoula. A soda water from Gulfport Coca-Cola (has neat Magnolia blooms on it), and M'Grape from Biloxi:

CCCB Co - Property of Coast Coca-Cola Bottling Co. Gulfport, Corso Cefalu Bottling Co. in Biloxi, Orange Crush from the French Bottling Works in Gulfport, and Consumers Bottling in Gulfport:

Lastly, I'll throw in some old Barq's:

The first one is a tough one to find - Barq's embossed on the shoulder. It's the first 12 oz from the 1920s. Thanks for the info. Robert. Check out the Hardtner on the right. Mr. Barq teamed up with him at one point and bottled from his bottling plant in Gulfport.

Bob, I recall a couple from Corinth but don't remember the brands. Not many. When I come across them again, I'll post the pics. Thanks!

I never realized the ribbed Barq's had different font, depending on the city, until I started gathering all my Barq's together. The left one is Panama City. The right one is Biloxi.

I came across a different Dixieland in my collection today. Not only the graphics are different, the cities on the back are different.

Hey Jerry-here is a bottle I found recently. Not that old, but had never seen it before.
