A little HELP please Part3

[ferdwear]

Can anyone please tell me the age and worth if any of these Sprite bottles?
The two on the ends are 10 oz. embossed sprite bottles.
The two in the middle are from the National Park series. One is from Saratoga. The other is from the Wind Caves.

Thank you
Ferd

Not much even in mint shape you might get a buck out of them. Just not much of a market for these era Sprite bottles.

Welcome to the forum. The bottles should have embossed dates on the bases. Look for codes like ..... 21 <(I)> 69 for 1969. Or they may have other codes ... but mainly look for double-digit numbers. Please let us know what you find, and thanks for sharing.

Wouldn't 1969 be 5 (I) 69?

Thank you SPBOB. I checked the bottoms again. The tall ones only have the national parks embossed on the bottom. the shorter ones look nothing like what you describe. The shorter ones have a 72 on them as well as 19=.

Which ones do you think are older? The short or tall.

You're right. If it was an Owens-Illinois bottle after about 1960 it most likely would be an 'I' inside of an 'O' like you suggested without the diamond points (I) I was mainly trying to give ferd and example of what to look for.

The 72 is no doubt for 1972. I'm not sure what the 19 is without seeing it, but it's most likely a glass plant or bottle mold number of some kind.

If those two 10 oz ones in the middle that are the national park edition ones do not have a date on the bottom look on the side towards the bottom there may be a date there.
