What States do not have a Colored Pontil Soda

The aqua one is Theo. There could be a green one that is too, just saying that the only green one I knew of had a smooth base. Gerry Phifer may know for sure.

I don't think Maine has a colored one, just aqua.

I don't think New Hampshire has one, colored or aqua. As a matter of fact I only know of one colored squat from New Hampshire, and that is smooth base.

I know there is one pontiled one listed but I don't believe it...the Henry Hall's are all smooth base as far as I know.

Texas does not have a colored one. I think there is a pontiled aqua squat from Galveston.

If there is one from VT, I'd love to see a pic of it. I'm not aware of one. I'm not even sure there is a pontiled soda for VT, period. There's the little JD Stanley from Rutland, but I've only ever seen them in aqua and smooth based.

That would make a good post , showing all pontiled colored sodas from each state.

Hey RIB. Couldn't figure out the search page from that link (but I am reasonably inept on a computer).

Florida does not have a pontiled colored soda. Actually I have never encountered an embossed Florida bottle that has a pontil. Labeled puffs from Florida towns is about as close as you get. Most likely George Emory/Jacksonville Fla is the first embossed soda water bottle used in Florida and it is a smooth base aqua bottle circa 1870 +/- a couple of years. One of DT Sweeny/Key West, Fla bottles is an amber lightning stopper bottle and the only true colored soda type bottle from Florida I know of and is scarcely seen for sale. The Ponce DeLeon Springs Water/
St Augustine, Fla is a colored Saratoga type bottle. It is extremely rare. Slim pickins in this neck of the woods for old colored soda's. There are probably less than a dozen bottlers that used embossed gravitating stopper bottles.
