another recent addition I wanted to share was this Lock City beverages bottle from Sault Ste Marie Ontario . don't really know much about it but though it was a neat northern Ontario bottle that I didn't have yet .

book lists it as 1952-1965 and is an older listing for lock city bottling works 1936-1952 so perhaps there is an older version of the same bottle ? or different bottles that use a similar name but from same bottler

back reads " quality product , contents 7 fl ozs - the flavour is shown on the crown "

Cool bottle, I got a Hutch from Sault St. Marie. Would be nice if that lock city came from Michigan. LEON.

I'm pretty sure they only operated in Sault Ste Marie Ontario , I've never heard of any operating in both Canada and Michigan .

what was the name on the Soo hutch I could check my book and see if its listed in Ontario or if it just bottled in Michigan

also I don't think I've ever seen a hutch from Sault Ste Marie Ontario before although looking at the dates when some of the bottlers operated there , it seems like there would be some but must not be that common

happened to see another Soo bottle , was down south at an antique mall and to my surprise they had a soo Michigan bottle , it traveled a long way to get here . I didn't buy it as I wasn't familiar enough with it to know if its common or not ? but figured I'd take a picture of it as it was interesting

its the aqua one " Soo Bottling Works " 7 oz Soo Mich , ( made by Root )

the clear one I saw when doing a google image search , it appears same company also had an embossed art deco style bottle , it has Soo in big letters
