hey morbious, my theory on the wrong caps, they may have just used random caps on the bottles, as they were going through hard times, its sad that all the marion botting companys went out of business, did ya see the pepsi plant when you were there ? id like to get in there mike

I saw both of them; however, I didn't get in them. I have seen pictures of the newer one online as the building is up for sale and there just doesn't seem to be anything left. The older one has/had a spa business in part of it.

Here's an odd one that I just found. Hopefully someday I will actually find one in mint condition. I got it real cheap and decided to take a chance on it, till I can find another.

What the heck here is my Mil-kay bottle.

Look at the bottom of the bottle and you will see why I don't think it's a re-cap. I just hope that they don't mutate.
