The second one is marked only with contents 11 fld. ozs. and a small c inside a triangle.

The Owen Sound bottle is worth about 10 bucks, is from the 1930s-40s I think. The second I have no idea. Just curious, where did you get the Owen Sound one? I know a flea market up near Wiarton that has cases of them.....

according to the deco soda bottle book the orange quench is listed as very scarce and valued at $75 in mint condition. i watched ebay along time before i found a mint one in my price range. they were going anywhere from $40 - $110. i know thats a wide range but sometimes bidding wars went on. i think that it is one of the nicest soda bottles out there.

I found the bottles and a lot more just north of Wiarton. I've been digging around personal dumps where houses were,since I was a kid. You don't have to dig that far there is much earth. Quite a lot of them have been broken on the rock.

warren, the book is called "Deco Soda Bottles" it by Brian Wade. it's a very good book with some great pictures. if i remember correctly his prices are based on actual auction prices so they should be fairly accurate for the time it was written. here is his web site http://home.att.net/~brian.wade/wsb/html/view.cgi-contact.html-.html
he also sells them on ebay. this book was recommended to me by some of the great folks here.

Well I finally decided to sell the "orange quench" bottle. It's hard to do because I love it. I guess I'll just have to do some serious digging this spring.
