Local ACL Spice Shaker...

[epackage]

Here's a Clifton NJ acl that's only 5-3/4" tall that I just got, it has a threaded lip and the metal top and dates to 1940-50's. I have a few acl's but I've never seen anything like this on any local...

Great find, Jim. You see few of the franchised brand shakers so a local like this has to be rare.

It looks like a salt and pepper shaker promotional set made by Glenshaw Glass out of the Pittsburgh area. Is there a G on the bottom inside a square? I've got somewhere around 30-35 sets like this. Some for local bottlers and some for bottler conventions from the late 1930s into the 1990s. They're a pretty neat collectible.

Most of these sets were produced in pairs and came in a green cardboard box. Only two and or three sets specify either salt or pepper on the neck.

When they arrive here tomorrow or the next day I'll let you know, the great grandson of the owner has all kinds of stuff from the company and he's never seen one....

I've always liked finding the shaker bottles, impossible to ever know how many different ones there are. I found this one in an antique shop in Indiana a few years ago. Only one I've seen so far that commemorates a bottler anniversary.

The 7UP is nice, this is the first small town bottler I've ever seen an example of...

Well since you brought it up...here's a link on this site to another commemorative bottle. I picked it up at the actual anniversary party as an employee way back then.

I've seen several of those over the years, one also came out with a Superman cap when the first movie was out in Canada. Had 4 or 5 over the years, they go for about $15-20 dollars or so. A friend has one of the Gray Beverages bottles in a gray color with a few of the graphics on it. This bottle is possibly a prototype or the product of glass plant employees fooling around.

Have another version of the Gray bottle this one has a pic of the Gray Beverage Island facility with various logos around the bottle. It's not as colorful as the other one. Also pictured is a two liter plastic bottle with a paper label for the grand opening of the facility in 1981.
