Anyone up for a Quicky?

Hey everyone. I just got back from vacation. I was going to do a couple fleas but it rained both Sundays. I shopped instead and bought these. I don't know how old they are but I liked the container which has a couple repaires and some wear but is nice just the same. Two of the bottles just seam a little more faded that the other four. Any thoughts on theses ACL's? I'm not to familiar.

in my experience kovel's prices are usually a good deal over the average price. quicky while a nice bottle isn't a very hard bottle to find, at least around my kneck of the woods. they go for $5-$10 dollars. i have a 10 oz king size. like you i got a kick out of the name. yours looks like a 7oz, i've been waiting to come across one of those in good condition.

Thanks, the 4 minty ones I don't think went through the washer at all. They were Thatchers by make and I guess the 55 is a year. The other 2 were Owens I in an O. I think I'll see what ebay does with them unless anyone here is interested.

geez...dont tell me that..I was selling them (along with most painted sodas) at the flea market for..maybe 2 or 3 bucks.....non-graphic ACLs are hard to sell up here (Massachusetts)...I still find cases of soda bottles up here for a few bucks sometimes....but I did always like the Quicky ones..so I probaly kept a few

Thanks everyone. A couple other things though. Does having no mention of deposit or return make this stuff more interesting and what year did Coke buy the distabution rights from Cott?
