Hey everyone, I just wanted to show off this bottle I got through a forum member a month or so ago. It's a Gay-Ola bottle, bottled by the Kanawha Celery=Cola Bottling Co. of Charleston, West Virginia. I think it's the only bottle I've ever seen that is embossed with two different Coke copycat brands! "Gay-Ola" is embossed on the front shoulder (above four rings) and the back reads "Kanawha / Celery=Cola (in script) / Co. / Charleston, W.VA." all in a circle slug plate. It appears to be early ABM. Definitely a cool bottle if you ask me! Thanks for looking!

Celery cola sounds like it would taste horrible. ;-)
And from back in the simpler days when "gay" simply meant "happy".
