The Hutch is not from a Coca-Cola Club convention. Here is a description:
This is the Salute to Engineering Bottle that was a premium giveaway to attendees at the 1961 Coca-Cola Company Convention held in Miami Beach Florida in 1961. This also marked the 75th Anniversary of Coke.
The green glass Hutchinson-style bottle contains the Chattanooga Glass Company mark on the bottom.
The bottle features all of the Coke brands, including but not limited to Coca-Cola, Sprite, Fanta (which was introduced in 1961). Also graphics which indeed salute the engineering feats of Coke, which include the Coca-Cola cooler, the Coke vending machine, Coke carriers, Coke crates, Coca-Cola Fountain Dispensing machines, as well as the Coca-Cola 75th Anniversary logo.
The bottle itself is a tribute to engineering. They used to sell for $400 range. With the economy they have taken a hit and go for around $200. I know they were limited production, but I don't know how many were made.
