Welcome to the forum! []

Very interesting, new guy. Welcome.

Your Dixie Shake and my Dixie Shake don't appear to be the same.
That's mine in the photo between Drink Dixie and Duke's.
As you can see mine has a sleight double waist. It's a Glenshaw bottle code hard to see, but seems like an 'I'.
Same bottling information however, and I have none better to proffer on that topic.

There is an awesome red/yellow painted label version...mucho scarce-o. With a great gal label.
And a similarly girl bedecked mucho scarce-o blue/white Dixie Fizz (O/Illinois 1948, on mine) noted from Dixie Fizz BC...likely/possibly the same bottler...

So, I guess now that I should suspect the liklihood of an embossed version of Fizz. Drat!
Another for the want list. I just removed a pair, too. Add one back in.

 

[fishnuts]

I forgot...
There's likely to be numbers embossed on the bottle bottom or around the heel, or both.
Lemme know what those are and I might be able to date your bottle.

Thanks for that info.

The embossed label sez

DIXIE SHAKE
for your health's sake

Th number on the bottom looks like

3661
E 159

As near as I can make out

Gotta be after 1913 from what I read on this great forum.

Hello and welcome to the forum. While the Dixie bottle is being discussed in this thread, I would like to ask if the Arma Bottling works "Dixie" bottles are related to the Dixie shake Co. in any form ? Here are two bottles in question if anyone knows. Thanks and welcome again "plumabob"

 

[fishnuts]

The Dixie from Arma is a Kansas bottle...at least mine is.
So I think not other than being named...something, something Dixie.

However, Dixie is not a particularly hard to find brand name. I counted the other day that I have 14 different of those something, Dixie, something bottles and maybe half that many on my raggedy want list. I'm sure there's many more I don't know about.

Thanks for the information, I do see people on e-bay seem to bid a lot on these type bottles . Kevin.....

 

[fishnuts]

My Dixie from Arma is coke green glass. Yours looks clear.
Never seen that acl. Already on the list...grumble, grumble.

Hello, They are two different bottles, one is greenish, the other is clear with painted on one side and embossed on the other.
