Found this yesterday. Among all the jergens bottle. Pretty battered with a chip in the bottom. Whats it worth? How long did they make these? IMG_20190406_130245_059.jpgIMG_20190406_130259_588.jpgIMG_20190406_130310_453.jpgIMG_20190406_130340_659.jpg

Now that's a better find! Probably not worth much with the damage but I don't often see Orange Crush bottles with a local bottler's name on the base. I'm not sure when they stopped using these, I think they switched to the ACL versions sometime in the 40s.

Yeah, Thats a better bottle & I don't think mine have any writing on the bottom. Probably dates from the 20's-30's. If you find one of those in green glass then you really got a good one. Keep looking for more. LEON.

10-4 Leon on the green ones.

Hmmm interesting bottle, I cant quite place it, so does it say Orange Crush Co. Bottle on both sides?

Yes. Orange crush on one side with pat'd date and orange crush with little person with looped arms on other.

Ok well then it's a pretty standard Mr. Crushy variation. They do come in different heights, sizes and also a couple of brown embossed ones, some are considered very tough to find, like the middle one I have pictured here, there are three variations of this bottle alone...it's also marked 7oz on the base.

Very common bottle in very poor condition. Common to see bottlers name and location on base. These clear ‘Krinkly’ bottles embossed like your arrived in the early 1920’s until the early 1940’s when the amber glass appeared. In perfect shape your bottle might bring $10.00.

Thank you for that. I didnt think it was rare. See, i have a craft/antique booth in a nearby city. I' ve been selling milk of mag bottles and other odd bottles for a dollar or two. I ask value just so I'm not wasting my time on junk. I appreciate all the help.
