I also just recently came across an Oh Min Bottle from Coca Cola Bottling Cushing OK in a estate settlement.I've been following with interest the original post on the same thing. Hoping someone comes up with some information.

I had forgotten about this discussion but recently discovered that "Oh Min" was something that cartoon character Andy Gump used to say all of the time. I have traced it back to the early 1920s but not sure when Andy first uttered it. As near as I can determine it was Andy's way of saying "Oh Man." This particular example is from 1943 but with a little Googling you should be able to find hundreds of other examples.

Correction ... "Min" was the name of Andy Gump's wife and he was always saying "Oh, Min."

Here's a picture of Andy's wife Min on the cover of this 1924 book currently on eBay ... http://www.ebay.com/itm/1924-The-Gumps-Collected-Comic-Strip-Sidney-Smith-Cupples-Leon-Book-/291168556054?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item43caff9416
