Hey Dan,

Take a look at LOT #111.

Here's one fresh outta the dirt.

Ace.

One makes a mention in Maurice & Darren's Dig Story.

The deco bottle seems to be more common. Can't find anything about the history of this company, at least not online.

another bottle I picked up last weekend when down there was a Kiss Kitchener soda , this is the clear versions is also a green bottle I don't have yet .

I don't know anything else about the company but book lists them as operating from 1929 - 1933 and then they disappear

according to book after reading the listings again , the Kiss beverage co ( clear bottle in first picture ) was only used in 1929 and then named changed in 1930 to kiss beverages and that lasted until 1933

The design of this bottle is one I really like. Here is the olive green version that I have. Design dated as March 25th 1930.

Wow that's an interesting one! I don't remember ever seeing that shade of green used for a deco bottle before.

Nice bottles.

interesting mentions it had branches in Guelph , galt ( now cambridge ) , Guelph , Hamilton

i seem to recall a few years back was someone from guelph finding bottles there and he found a few Kiss bottles in guelph so makes sense now they had a branch there too

doubt the Nebraska one is related just due to the distance and there being no connection between Kitchener Ontario and that area
