This was the Atlanta company that invented NuGrape. The star was carried over to the fancy straightside and later the 1920 patent waisted NuGrape bottles.

Currently on ebay:

Never seen any of the three, but love those old sodas so will keep an eye out for them.

ORIGINAL: TheCaliKid

So, at what point was the pentagram flipped upside down? Anyone know?
I do not understand, was the star flipped the other way on the bottle at one time?
