Although I have scaled down my searches on this topic, if I stumble onto anything in the future I will be sure and share it. I am particularly interested in finding pictures of the bottling companies that were located in Weldon during the 1930s or earlier. For a future reference I thought it would be of interest to share these Weldon map images which are as follows ... 1. 1909 Coca Cola Bottling Works ~ Corner of 3rd and Washington2. 1915 Coca Cola Bottling Works ~ 1st Street3. 1915 Pepsi Cola Bottling Works ~ 1st Street

For you North Carolina collectors, here's the link where I have spent the past several weeks searching for anything related to the Weldon Bottling Company and where I found all of the newspaper images I posted. The website also contains directories and images and is a true treasure trove of information. Perhaps others can find something that I was unable to. The Roanoke News of Halifax county is where found the most pertinent information, but there might be other newspapers, directories, etc., that will produce something. http://www.digitalnc.org/

I enjoyed reading all of that. Bob does some amazing research. I picked up this same bottle at an auction yesterday and was searching to see if I could find anything about it. Seems like after all these years, this is still the most information available. I guess this is a pretty rare and old bottle. I'll include a pics of mine as well.
