These are the first NDNR Old Colony I've been able to obtain. Date code on them is 72 and are marked Orchard Products, I still don't know what year OC sold off the brand or if this was a set up subsidiary, either way it disappeared by the mid 70's

Yes a first for me as well. I have them from IGA, Shasta, Uncle Bens, so I think most grocery stores had them, and I have seen them for 7up in paper label as well.
Hires, Crush, Canada Dry and others had them in 10oz paper label so it stands to reason they came in paper 26oz to.....but they are obscure!

have found 26 oz canada dry bottles that only have metal caps for canada dry so would assume they had a paper label not sure what other brands i've found those bottles for with caps but no label

pretty sure i've found similar bottles for wilson's ginger ale ( toronto ) too
