Acl newbie

[StLouBrew]

Hello all, I am just starting a side collection of local acl soda bottles. I've been picking up acl soda bottles here and there when I can't find any beer related items for my main collection. I was turned on to this by a friend who gave me the 3rd edition acl book. Here are a couple of bottles I recently added, any info will be greatly appreciated!

The Moore's Lemon is relatively tough and it's a nice find.
This Stoeckers is not one I'm too familiar with, so my input won't carry much weight. Most of the other Stoecker's, both acl and embossed are around and not too expensive.

Thanks Fishnuts,
I only have one book to go by for now and I think it might be a little outdated. The Moore's Lemon was listed as very rare but that was ten years ago and it sounds like it may still be a good one! The Stoecker's is not listed in the book I have.

Thanks again,
Steve

Hey Steve,

Thanks for finally posting, and some very cool sodas indeed. Is the date code on that Ale8 1935? Or 1955?
