Here are some of my personal collection rarest ACL's. All are local TN-MS except the Birdie. I have got these over the last 30 years some I have never seen another like but I haven't seen them all I am sure. Here's some I can get my hands on close by
1ST The BIRDIE, 2nd is a Dyersburg Tn King Cotton and last of all is the famous Jackson Tn Kick with the Hillbilly being kicked into space by the mule.

Here's 4 tough ones to get I know it looks like 2 of 2 styles but really all 4 are different. They all have different rear stencils some have Union Bottling Works Memphis Tenn on rear and others just have Memphis Tenn. These are hard to get or at least have been to me. There was the famous Chisa Hotel in Memphis that I heard these were sold out of at first.

Here's the 3 styles of Routt from Jackson Tenn. He started with this bottle as his own product then when he brought Pepsi and OC to Jackson he did away with this his own brand. Then later he had a Dyersburg Tenn Business that sold several lines. These are hard to get without faded early labels.

Here's 2 bad boy hard to get ones from Dyersburg Tenn both are Special Bottles. I have seen about 1 other of each one in 30 years and a couple with faded blown labels. I will list some others later.

That "kick" bottle is just plain awesome. How much would it sell for do you think?
