Hey flasherr, I should have said "NOT raised" The city is "Paintsville KY" looks like 3 47 with a "saturn" looking simble between the#s and "duraglass" in script. I got the bottle for $5 at an antique. How'd I do?

That was a very fair price for that bottle. Most of time you see that bottle here in Dr. Pepper country Texas for $10-15. I normally sell mine for 8-10 except I have one that I put a $20 price tag on because it has Dublin Texas on it which is the oldest running DR pepper plant. There is one bottle I got the other day that is tough to find is the first throw away bottle. It is kind of in the shape of a brake fluid bottle. I ll have to remember to bring one in and take a picture of it.

This is one of the few I have seen that full Graphics on front and back. Here is the her side of the bottle.
Here is a little tidbit I learned not to long ago to help date ACL bottles. If you look around base of an ACL bottle at the bottom you will find a little tit or an indention. This is to help the bottle line up for printing on the bottle. Some of the older ACL bottles that do not have this were probably hand screened. IM not sure how true this is but it makes since when comparing older to later bottles

Hope im not boring yall with all theses soda pictures
