I have a few Falls City bottles, but I've never seen that one. Perhaps @algilp3 knows more about it.

Falls City Cola
Well the Falls City Cola bottle is a really nice straight side knock off Coke bottle. Its one of my favorite knock off cokes in my collection. Now, this bottle if I remember correctly does not have seam line going all the way to the top. This takes the bottle to to being pre-1910. Also, this is comparable to most bottles from the era with the slug print and style. From this, I would assume this was an attempt to compete with Coke and other colas in the early 1900's. This bottle pre-dates prohibition by several years. I paid $60 or so on Ebay in 2015 for mind.

I liked this one because it's a similar design as the Mr. Sterling & Gee Bee Crab Orchard Bottle, if you look back at them.
