Hello everybody, I am a new member here, and this is my first post. I have had this bottle for some time, and I was wondering if anybody would know the value of it. It is a raised letter Dr. Pepper bottle from San Antonio, Texas. However, on the bottle, it is misspelled San Antonia. I have looked on Google for information on this bottle, but I have found nothing. Thank you in advance for everything!

I believe they're kind of rare, I'm not sure about being from SA, TX. [8|]

I have a friend that has one that is also misspelled. Mine is spelled correctly. The raised letter versions that we are talking about are harder to find because they were discontinued in favor of the debossed or pushed in letter versions. If you want to part with yours, I have some traders or we could work something out. ~bottlingco

The price is dependent on the town. They can sell for much less or for more as well. Some are way more common than others. ~bottlingo

A few months ago, I saw one on ebay that sold for $72.99 from San Antonio, spelled correctly. Thanks for the replies so far everyone!

Thank you for the offer, bottlingco, but I think I want to keep this one. It's one of my favorites, and I couldn't part with it right now.

Your bottle should be embossed Dr Pepper in script on the base. If it is also embossed 3 RIVERS * it would have premium value because some collectors specialize in that Texas glass company. About $100 bottle if 3 Rivers.
Are you from Texas? There is a Houston bottle show Aug 16-17, only bottle show in Texas.
