the vernor's cleaned up really well and rather hard to believe it was literally just pulled out of a dump and covered in dirt .

back says it was bottled by Vernor's Ginger Ale Limited Windsor Ontario , although I suspect there must of been a closer local distributor or it might of came from Toronto as they had vernor's

Nice find on the Vernor's! Looks like an older one. I don't see them very often up here, I got one out in BC years ago but haven't come across one since.

I can only recall finding one other one , that was in another dump a year or so ago . makes me wonder if there was no local distributor or return on them and they just got tossed here ? seems odd to find 2 not broken ones in different dumps both surrounded by other broken pop bottles
