This is one of my favourites. While in high school in the early 1980s I worked at a convenience store/gas bar in Iron Bridge in Northern Ontario. In the back room of the store this bottle sat on a shelf. I asked the owner, Jerry Kelly, to let me have it dozens of times, the answer was always no. When he sold the business is 1985 he gave me the bottle to add to my collection. I always assumed the bottle was from Lock City Beverages out of Sault Ste Marie simply because I lived 45 miles from the Soo and they made that beverage. However the beverage was also made by a bottler in Fort William On. which is now Thunder Bay. This bottle has the Consumers Glass mark on the bottom and I assume it was a US sources bottle as both Sault Ste Marie and Fort William were border towns. Likely not a super rare bottle but the story behind it is what matters to me.
