Dixie Coca Cola Bottle

[digdug]

I am looking for information on a 'Dixie Coca Cola Bottle'. It is a straight sided bottle from the early 1900's. Years ago, when I was in a bottle club, everyone wanted a Dixie Coke bottle. Now that I am older & wiser, I can't remember the history of this bottle. Does anyone know? Thanks!

You may possibly be referring to the s/s Coca- Cola bottles from Dixie Bottling Works in Bristol VA-TN...est around 1902....still operating today.

I've seen a straight sided Dixie Cola bottle from Mississippi.

I've got a Dixi-Cola on the porch (I've brought about 150 bottles so far from a barn and a shed behind an old General Store that my Father-in-law owned). It states that this "Dixi-Cola" was bottled in McCormick, SC, but it was under authority of "Dixi-Cola" out of Baltimore, MD. I'll clean it up and take a picture of it when I get more time (have a bridal shower to go to in a few minutes). It is red letters on white. Pretty nice. -John
