So I picked this bottle up because when I saw it was a football player; I figured it would have more widespread appeal. I've since learned its a Canadian bottle and is on the rare side.

Neat bottle. I like the embossed football player kicking the ball on the neck. Adds a lot to the looks of the bottle.

That's a nice one! I wouldn't say rare per se, but it isn't a super easy bottle to find compared to the later, plainer Kiks without the football player which are very common.

Nice one! Defently a tougher one to get, has the older 6¢ price and the 'there's life in Kik' phrase, they later changed it to 'there's quality in Kik'.......Here is a link to my post with tons on KIK info!

Thank you for the link, fun to see the progresssion of your collection in the old thread.

I assumed it was on the rarer side of things given the prices that have been realized on eBay.

I like the bottle but I probably won’t keep it; I have to focus what I’m collecting. Right now I’m all over the place and can’t start adding every cool looking ACL too
