Coca-Cola syrup jug; unique label; anyone seen one like it?

[LC]

I found one in my Coke book . States that it is from 1914-1919 . Shows two paper labels on it , one being square shaped . The oval label looks identical except that some of the printing around the outer edge is is a bit different in places . Books at $325 .

L.C.: Thank you so much for the info! I did see the square labelled one; it said Toronto where mine says Atlanta. I wonder if they changed the label to reflect which office the jug originated from?

@ Jamus and Wheeler: Further inspection shows it is likely a defect, not a crack. [] I inspected other gallon jugs that I found with this one and a lot of them seem to have similar defects.

Make sure to make the needed corrections with your E-Bay listing....In fact you should stop it and relist it, people who have already seen the ad may not look back to find out it isn't cracked...[]

I did end up stopping the auction and relisting it. Thanks for the advice!
