Do you have any idea how rare those are? It's a paper label ndnr from about 1968 or so. Not many have survived and its worth a good $300 on a conservative estimate. They book for $1000 and I would pay a good amount for one because u don't see them very often at all. If u have a chance to buy it then do it now.

Actually think the year was 66. It was right after Pepsi acquired mountain dew and was apart of the first trial no deposit no return bottles. This is all off memory and no reference. If I'm wrong I'm not off by very much. Morbius knows everything word for word on these things. Hope u get it, good luck.

Don't see that bottle in either guide. Looks as if it has a pig in that pic. The regular paper labels NDNR's in the guide didn't have pigs. The foil labels did. I'm pretty sure this version with the pig sold at the Mebane auction this past August for over $300. Good find and I would be all over that.

It has a pig on it. Looks to me to be the laughing pig post Pepsi style. Think I have seen the other one your mentioning Dustin. Never even had the chance to buy either.

Here's the book listing for the only ndnr in it. It's the premiere hillbilly bottle book too, so u really have a prize.
