extremely rare TEAL! chero cola bottle!

[bottlenutboy]

is the last one aqua or gteen?

i like that citron one in the middle!, wanna trade?

 

[bottlenutboy]

just bumping this one, because i like to look at it, im still psyched about it[]

also to better understand the difference in the teal one and an icebluedeep aqua one

here's a comparison shot[]

 

[quarrylizard]

think ill keep the citrin...the last one has a green tint like clear green.i have some clear blue tint also.the ctrin has no FL just OZ after the 61/2........

I believe I may have found a teal one as well. Strange thing about it is embossed near the bottom of the bottle reads: "This bottle never sold". Is that common? Manufactured in Columbus, GA, anyone know rough value?

 

[bottlenutboy]

columbus is where it all began, so they have the most bottles, makeing them the most common, IF, and this is a big if, it is actually teal, rather than just a dark blue, which also seems to be a common color, if teal then it has a pretty good value, probably around $50+ i would figure, but ive heard of them going for more., if just a common aqua, or blue color, then a couple dollars at best

I dig Cheros left and right at my dump and I leave them there.

 

[bottlenutboy]

where from? there are some good ones, that sell pretty well,

how come you didnt make it to atlanta today? i was looking for you...

buster, doug

well what do you two think about it now that youve seen it up close?

i had it at the show, the others that came should have came by my table! i had some pretty good ones there that i was looking for information on.


REMEMBER THAT FLASK I WAS PASSING AROUND THE SHOW ASKING ABOUT?
well i heard back from ralph van brocklin, some of you probably recognize that name, if not then he's THE authority on flasks, he said that he didnt know of a half pint like mine, only the pint, and he said it was definately worth atleast $350!

im glad i didnt leave that thing in that antique mall for $4 now!

RE: buster, doug

Here is another Chero-cola plant you may not know about. It was located in Coeburn, VA and appears first on the 1922 Sanborne map of the area. I will keep my eyes open for bottles.

RE: buster, doug

Here is a G&L bottling works bottle from Pocahontas, VA. I'm not sure is this will help you any; however, it does share a similar design to the Chero-cola bottles. A connection maybe or a bottle company modified design?
