Sorry for the delay in replying to you. I was at the worlds largest flea market in Canton Texas. Just returned with over 150 bottles. Nothing real exciting but did get a few new ones to ad to my collection.

Ive never heard of the Wescola but it is a nice looking embossed bottle. As far as the birleys goes I have some smaller bottles from the 1920s both in clear and a pinkish tint. IM guessing the did an orange drink and then later made it carbonated or atleast put it in a soda bottle for easier and better distribution. I have seen in it in single serving sizes up to like a family size in that bottle.
