I hope this forum is an acceptable one for this post.
I am looking for information about the beginnings of Dodger soda, or the Dodger Beverage Co. Most of the information I find most easily when googling indicates that it got its start in the 1960s, perhaps in Dubuque, Iowa, and did not last long. However, after digging a little further, I found an online page from an old auction where a Dodger Beverage metal sign was listed, and the description stated that the Dodger Beverage brand had its history in 1950s Brooklyn, and claimed that the major league Dodgers team was its namesake. I'm particularly interested in whether this particular claim is true.
As stated above, information that places the beginnings of Dodger Beverage Co in the 1960s is easy to find. But here is the link I found that suggests the connection to the baseball Dodgers:

So if any of you bottle experts know the genesis or history of the Dodger Beverage Co., especially if it has a connection to the baseball Dodgers from Brooklyn, I would appreciated any information. Thanks so much!
