After many years of broken ones, I finally dug my first 8 sided Pepsi Cola from Richmond, Va. I thought it was another Taka Cola, because of its light aqua color. Shown on the pic is also a Charlottesville, Va. Taka Cola I dug last year. Now we can see why there was a copyright infringement case between these two companies. Seriously, they look like twins until you get close.

Congrats...a pic on a window sill or a handrail would go a long way in showing your bottles, all I see is wood....Jim

That is a really nice Pepsi , glad you dug a good one . I have had quite a few of the old Pepsi bottles over the years , but I did not know there was a paneled one made . Great find .

Great Pepsi, and a great set overall!

I agree with Jim regarding a different photo display strategy; clearly the present image does not do justice to the fine bottles you have there.

Nice to dig a Pepsi! Like the copycat too. We have copycats here that look Just like our amber Cokes.
