After some hard rains I hit the dump today and found 2 newly exposed bottles today. One an embossed coke from 1921 from AKRON OHIO, and The other just has "GUND Cleveland, O".There used to be a GUND arena in Cleveland. Now it is "The Q".Anyway, This Brewing company "GUND Brewery" was established in 1897 and stayed in business until prohibition hit in 1919.The bottle is in good shape. There is a chip near the bottom but kind of adds to its appeal.I am not sure how numerous these bottles are but GUND has a unique history in Cleveland.Enjoy. Oh and how many embossed coke bottle is too much????? HAHA. I am starting to get quite a few.

I don't know how many of the aqua beers that I have dug that were unembossed. Good to see those that are embossed. Is the 1921 Coke an embossed patented 1915? I always keep those. Buster

Yes it is. There is something about the early 1920 hobble skirts that draw me to keep them.
