A Christmas Coke on Christmas Day

[WesternPA-collector]

Earlier this year I got this Lancaster Coca Cola "Christmas Patent" bottle. I figured it was a great day to post it now. Made in 1931 by Owens-Illinois at plant #4 in Clarksburg, VA. Embossed on the bottom with LANCASTER, PA. Maybe someone with a Porter book can determine how rare it is. Merry Christmas!

It is listed as common in the Coke Bottle Checklist by Bill Porter 5th edition. The 1915 & D-pat are both rated scarce.

Thanks for that information, and Merry Christmas. It's interesting that the patent-D is newer yet more scarce.

It all boils down to, Supply and demand.

is there more demand for a D-Patent over a older more desirable Christmas Coke ?

That's a hell of a bottle!

More demand? I'm not sure about that but I know some cities Christmas Cokes are common, while the the same city in a Pat-D is scarce or rare.
