[:)] Hi,
This is my first post and wanted to see if anyone has seen are maybe have this bottle. I know DR Pepper and 7-up merged in the early 1900 I think. Anyway it was bottled by 7-up in alexandria,la 50 miles from here.I found it in my great grandmothers old house.I even called the DR Pepper Museum in Waco,tx and I talked to the man and he said he has never heard or seen one of these. Hope someone here can help with maybe a date time and how much it might be worth.

Thanks
Thomas

Maybe 1950's, early 60's? What does it have on the bottom? About 10-20 dollars depending on condition. Some of the other ACL guys can help. Hope this helps

Welcome to the forum.

Rick Sweeney's 2002 book refers to two "My Pic" bottles ... one dated 1949 and one dated 1962. But I do not know if they were made throughout that entire time period. The book also list "My Pic" bottles that were sold between $16 and $55.

This might help as well ...

7up merged with Dr Pepper in 1988.

It has 259-8-10.
Looks like a flower pot in the center with a J in it.
And 1B62.Could be 1862 but I can't tell.
Also has very small chip on the bottom edge of bottle.
