Mammoth Beverage Bottles

[algilp3]

I recently acquired a Mammoth Beverage Bottle from Owensboro, Ky. I've seen a Bowling Green and Russellville, Ky.
Does anyone know where else they were bottled and what makes them so rare?

Thanks

algilp3 Welcome to the forum. Cool bottle. I am assuming the bottle you are referring to is like the one pictured below. I don't know if it was bottled in any other towns, nor about it's rarity. But I did discover (as you know) that the label image is that of Mammoth Cave (National Park) in Kentucky. Based on the populations of the towns where it was bottled, I'm surprised that the Russellville bottle isn't the rarest ... Current Populations / Approximate ... Owensboro = 60,000Bowling Green = 60,000Russellville = 7,000 Check out this link about the so called "Red Haired Mummy" at Mammoth Cave National Park. http://gianthumanskeletons.blogspot.com/2012/01/red-haired-mummy-discovered-in-mammoth.html The link is also where I found the black & white picture below that is the same as the image on the bottle.

Currently, it's only one I have and I'm going hang on to it. I have mainly been collecting Ky Amber and Aqua Cokes over past 3 years.

It is that bottle, I'm having a little trouble posting picture. Thanks for the info, still trying figure why there aren't more out there. Lots of bottle guys around my area (Campbellsville) go crazy over it.

Thanks!!
