Here is a bottle that I don't see very often around here. Thanks for looking!

I recently found a Nu Icy from Petersburg West Virginia. First one I saw from that small area. Any idea if it's a hard one to find? Thanks

Cryptic, Both the NuGrapes and NuIcys are abundant down here. I'm digging a creek dump that was located below a bottling plant that operated from the 20s to the 50s. There were hundreds (If not thousands) of damaged ones dumped in the creek here. I have the dig posted in the Digging and Finding forum. Yours has the large Imitation Grape embossed below the NuGrape and star. Those are not as common as the ones without it. That looks to be a very nice clean bottle with the patent date.

Stanley, Of all the NuIcys I have, I don't believe that I have ever found one with a town embossed on it.

Buster.

I double checked and it is a Nu Icy bottle, 6 oz and has a patten date of 1920 on it. Have tried to post 2 pics. Thanks.
