Yeah that American Dry looks like it should clean up pretty well if the other side isn't totally eaten away. Never seen that one myself, definitely wasn't a very successful brand up here since the bottles don't show up too often either. I think there was a franchise in Kingston, not sure if it was bottled anywhere else in Canada.
Well unless the same company set up in Canada?...but it was usually a franchise, never could find any reference to America Dry in the USA.Oh is it originally Canadian? That's what I always assumed until I saw this https://www.casemine.com/judgement/us/5914cc1fadd7b04934807f67 I'm guessing this is an unrelated brand then?
American Dry is a Canadian brand originally, at some point either Kik aquired them or Crush did when they aquired kik in the 1940's. That can is from about 1965.
On the contrary, it was fairly successful, and Crush kept the brand rolling into the early 70's.
Kik and American Dry were operated under the subsidiary company Associated bottlers limited owned by Orange Crush in Canada....and they owned many other brands, especially by the end of the 60's.
