Here's one I've never seen.
Majestic Beverages "Midget," ACL, 8 fl oz.
Base: Owens-Illinois, Duraglas. Date code = 53.

My wife was able to read the badly damaged text on the reverse:
"A wholesome delicious beverage made with filtered carbonated water,
cane sugar, and fine flavor. See Crown. Bottled by W.M. Friedman
1021–23-25 N. 3rd St., Phila, PA. Capacity, 8 fl oz."

Anyone seen one? Heard of one?

I do know there is a Canadian brand from Hamilton Ontario called 'Majestic', but I don't know anything about the US brand.

Thx Canadacan. Yeah I'm discovering how many small bottlers and brands my city had. Some seem very scarce, but not particularly sought after. lol

That is from Philadelphia Pa. Majestic Beverages was my family's business and Wm. Friedman was my grandfather. When they came to the US from Russia my grandfather and his brothers all bottled and delivered seltzer by horse and carriage - mainly in the Jewish community. Later on they bottled flavored sodas and had 2 trucks - driven by my father and uncle.
