had came across this bottle posted online , had never seen or heard of them before . seller didn't post a picture of the back but I messaged them and they said it was from Weymouth Nova Scotia .
had already posted it to another thread but recently came across some more information which helps to better explain the history of the bottler . it appears they were also the area's Kist and Pepsi bottler . despite being in a rather tiny town , had a large modern bottling operation at the time. and were well known locally for a free public water fountain/spring . not sure what year they lasted to but appears they survived into the 60's or 70's .
Weymouth Springs started in 1924 and lasted until 1941 , when it became Jones Bottling co .
the bottle in first picture is for Jones Beverages , red/ white label 6 oz bottle . label features words " enjoy " in the same location as a kist bottle .
my nova scotia bottle book mentions only 1 bottle from Weymouth NS , a plain clear 8 oz bottle for Weymouth Springs Bottling Company Limited , never seen it before but book features a sketch of what one looks like .
