These are two bottles I purchased, mostly for the color. I don't know anything about either of them - do they look familiar to anyone?

Hey Annie...

Nice clean, amber blob-top... unusual for it to be so clean, coming from NJ and all !!
(I can say stuff like that, cause I was born in NJ!!![;)])

Great color on the crown top soda... Kinda citron in color?

Don't know much else about them... sorry[&o]

I call the crown top citron colored - would be interested in pics of other folks citron colored bottles, for comparison.

Very nice color for that PA crown top. I can’t really read the town on it but it looks like Athens PA?? I have a very nice citron crown from Scranton, PA and some others that I will get a pic of later this week for you.

Tom,
You're right, the crown top says Athens Bottling Works, Athens, PA.
Can't wait to see your pics.

Here is a picture of the beer from Scranton, PA and a big unmarked medicine is the same color. The bottle in the middle is just a regular amber beer for comparison.

Sure, I would sell it although it is in poor condition. It has a ¾ inch bruise on the side, small ¼ inch chip on base and a popped bubble on the lip. I paid $3 for it so I have to make a small profit off of it[:D]. If you want it you can have it for $4 plus shipping. That’s the only reason I bought it too was because of the outrageous color. Just e-mail me if you want it.
