I have a straight side Coke soda water bottle, embossed on bottom with Coca Cola Bottling Co. - Chase City, VA, it has an embossed ring on the lower neck - there is nothing on the bottom, was wondering if this real or a reproduction?

The photos are a bit small, but I'm pretty sure it's real. I've never heard of any of the flavour bottles being reproduced. The reason it's a different colour is because it's not exactly a Coke bottle, it's a bottle that the local franchise had used for their other products. It was probably purchased from a different glassmaker than the actual Coke bottles.

At least I assume it's a flavour bottle. If it has the Coca Cola logo then it's an early straight-side bottle that predates the hobbleskirt design.

Thank you! I thought it was real but wasn't sure. It doesn't have the script logo, but block letters, I was told it was from around 1910 and it is from my local bottling plant that closed about 50 yrs. ago.
