Here are two Lime-Cola bottles. I have only seen one in the dark green. Anyone with any info on the company? They were bottled here in Georgia and Alabama. They were out of buisness here before my time.
those are nice. i've seen the clear embossed one before but that's the first green one. i have a acl one that a darker shade of aqua.it was bottles in shelton s.c. in the 40's or 50's.
Lime Cola originated in Montgomery Ala. don't know when. Had close to 30 bottlers in Ga. Augusta, Savannah,Statesboro and Elberton are just a few. Your green bottle is killer never seen one and I've seen a good many LC's. Lastly these bottles are from around the early 20's. I know from adds they were using this bottle in 1923.
The local Lime Cola here was in operation from 1916 to 1920. They bought their syrup from the Lime Cola Syrup Co in Montgomery wich was the mother company for all the Lime Cola bottlers. There was another company in Pensacola during 1947that was called Lime Cola Bottling Company but they didn't last quite a year. Never seen one of their bottles.
That is a Jackson Beverage Bottle from Morgan City, LA. They are very common and come in clear and green. It is a tree with Andrew Jackson carved in it and logging chains around the top and bottom. Everyone I dug with in Pensacola dug a near mint set except ME!!! I have dug hundreds of them but never a good one.
When ever anyone dug a mint one I dug a mint soda water used by Hygea Coca Cola. They are very rare and very few have been dug by others hole. I have dug 26 near mint.
Hey Warren, I'm right there with you on those Jackson bottles. I can't seem to get a good one either. I thought the one's I had read Jackson Brewery? Oh well, I'll just keep digging them till I get a good one.
I see the bottles above quite often but uncovered a few in my collection today that I don't see too often. Maybe you guys have these in your collection but thought I'd share. The ice blue one is really nice.
