Coke bottle from Houston Coke factory. No earlier than 1903 as that was when the plant opened.

These heel script ones seem to be the most common of the Houston cokes. Typically sell for about $75 in good condition so far as I have seen. There are a few different slight mold variations.

Bills Porters Coca Cola Book calls it common. Being sick looking in rough shape probably not worth alot depending on what you consider alot. LEON.

It needs a heavy duty Tumble Cleaning to make it look descent/presentable in my opinion. I think there is a guy in here in Texas that does tumble alot of Texas Bottles. Is that a chip in the lip I see? if so that would affect price. LEON.

Is that right? Thanks for the info. Yes, it has a very very small chip on the lip.
