30 Years ago I dug the only one of these I have seen. I sold it when I sold a collection of Soda bottles 20 + years ago. Well sellers regret I have looked for one every since I have seen a couple from Northern States but never another from Tn. This popped up this morning it's a "ONE TALL ONE" with the Lincoln looking man on it. The bottom has Jackson Tenn and 1927 pat date on it. It's a nice one the ring you see in the neck is my Bleach line I am going to let it soak and then give it a nice cleaning. Goes to show never give up and also don't sell something you may regret later.

Here's a few more pickups from the group I found. Both Amber Gayola's are Jackson Tenn different styles, The King Cotton is minty but the flash made it look light . It's also from Jackson Tn a fairly scarce ACL. The Dr Pepper is a hard one to get it's the Jackson Tenn raised letters and the Days ACL is from Corbin Ky

Congrats on some great finds, especially the deco bottle with the Lincoln-like guy. You've probably seen this patent before but others may not have. The designer, Frank R. Miller, was an assignor to the Graham Glass Company ...

Thanks I have been very busy and out of the circle. Still digging buying trading etc never seem to miss a beat at that. Maybe I can post some of the really good stuff I have lucked upon before long. dm
