This forum contains an almost endless number of discussions about this-and-that acl soda bottles, but as far as I know there has never been a thread devoted solely to the most valuable, most sought after acl soda bottle in a specific locale, city, town. Every time I attend a bottle show or walk through an antique shop and observe the array of acl bottles on display, I often wonder if I might be overlooking an acl from another locale that I'm not familiar with, but one that is in high demand elsewhere and that collectors are willing to pay top dollar for. Hence, the reason for this thread to ask members to share the number one most valuable acl soda bottle in your particular region. Those of us who have been collecting acls over the years should know by now exactly what that particular acl bottle is, and by sharing them here we will have a book of sorts to assist us in identifying those oh-so rare and highly sought after bottles from coast to coast. In some areas there might be two or more top contenders, and if that's the case in your locale, then by all means share them. But for the most part I'd like to keep this focused on the most valuable. Even if you don't own a particular acl, please list it anyway and show a picture of it if you have one. And if you don't have a picture, maybe someone else does and can share it on your behalf. And as for values go, please indicate what a mint condition example is worth.

I know local collectors who have been looking for one of these for over twenty years and have never even come close to finding one. I used to own a ratty example that I paid $75.00 for, and then a couple of years later sold it for $125.00. In true mint condition, one of these is easily worth ...

I know several local collectors who would gladly pay that amount for a mint example. Its a ...

... and has the image of an Eskimo and a Penguin on the label.
