Couple of nice flea market ACLs from this morning

[treasurekidd]

I picked these up this morning at a local flea market. I've already got them up on ebay because ACLs aren't what I collect, but these were nice ones so I grabbed them. This one's a Lo'Fi Beverages, Property of Coca-Cola Bottling Co Of Lowell, Mass. I searched everywhere but couldn't find any info. Anyone ever heard of it?

Here's the other one. It's Wheatons Beverages, Hiram Wheaton Bottling Co, New Bedford, Mass. I couldn't resist the whale. Thanks for looking!

Someone else just posted a Lo Fi and thought they were pretty good? I just say that Wheaton ACL on ebay. I wanted to get one due to my New Bedford Connection. Hiram Wheaton New Bedford sodas go way back, they were very prolific so there are a lot of there bottles out there. When I was a kid i dug a couple of there early crowntops with embossed whales on them (New Bedford was the whaling capital of the world). There early crowntops featured a narwhale with a siphon bottle. Like madman's beers these early crowntops had dates on the back of them, I had a 1907 and a 1912. Today was the first ACL's I've seen - two in one day!
