Here's a flotilla of boats.
The Lakeside is from Sheboygan, WI, 1952.
And Pacific from 1943 Honolulu.
Refreshing from Celina, OH.

Also another indian with canoe on Flambeau. And tiny little sailboats on the McGirrs Blue Seals and on Mozark.

Cool bottles. I have a couple of them myself. The first one is an "Anchorr" acl from Dayton, Ohio ... 1948. I like how the hull and star are cut out so the beverage would have shown through. The other one is a "Pacific" Beverages, and as far as I know not related to "Pacific" Soda. It's from Tillamook, Oregon and considered rare ... 1951.

Hey fishnuts ... did you know there is another "Pacific" bottle from Hawaii that has a surfer on the label and consider rare and valuable? I have to assume the two are related, but not entirely sure as one says "Soda" and the other does not.

Additionally, I was curious about the following definitions and thought I would share them. In my simple way of looking at things it seems that a ship is a ship - a boat is a small ship - and a canoe is a small boat. Lol []

Ahoy mates!
