Thanks to the information on this list a few weeks ago I saw this one-of-a-kind Celery Cola bottle from Reidsville NC at the Mebane NC Country Store Auction. I drove 750 miles after work Wednesday and got to NC around 8 am. I found a couple of bargains among the guys setup in the parking lot and then looked over the 400 lots (including 7800 bottles and tons of great soda signs). A rare straightside Coke from Sanford NC went for two thousand dollars plus 10% premium and sales tax.
I visited with a couple of forum members and bid on a few items and was glad this Celery Cola was among the early lots. I left mid-afternoon even though the auction was scheduled to last for three days. I left a couple of absentee bids but everything else was going higher than I was willing to pay. I found a few more things in antique shops in six states driving another 750 miles home.
