Found this pop bottle at an estate sale today

[mattinad]

Paid $2 for this just cuz I liked the label and the story on the back. Any idea if it is worth anything?

If this price is right then it looks like you got a great deal.Just because thats how much they want doesnt mean thats what its worth though www.ebay.com/itm/YANKEE-DOODLE-ROOT-BEER-ACL-Soda-Bottle-7oz-1947-/170740167857?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item27c0e834b1 Im sure its worth more than what you paid.

Nice bottle ,great graphics..gono list them from CAlif and 1 from tennesee, rated "b" which kinda means $5 to $10 on a good day, however some of the gono info is almost 10 years old. Some ratings have changed and $$ have gone up or down since then, Ebays history on completed has one sold for $14.50 recently, its a keeper

It is from Los Angeles. It is different from the one posted on eBay though. The eBay one has "Yankee Doodle" in white lettering above the label and no rings on the neck. This one does not have the writing about the lable but it DOES have a blob-like embossed area just below the neck rings on the front and back that has the piper and "Yankee Doodle Root Beer" in clear embossing.

Is this one older than the 1947 on eBay do you guys think??? The rings give it a very "1930's Art Deco" look to it.

A pic of any embossing on the bottle might help date it...
