Go to worthpoint .com and search. they have some history on this bottle.
All good information, thank you my friend!I have one with the label still. This one’s a 1937, 6 1/2 oz. I have a 1936 from northern Michigan with the paper label. The company that became 7up sold a drink called Howdy during the 20’s and what later became 7up was called Bib Lithiated Lemon drink in 1929. The earliest 7up bottle I’ve seen was 1935, I believe. There’s an extensive 7up history by Bill Lockhart, should be in past posts here. Join and search, should be easy to find. View attachment 236779View attachment 236780View attachment 236781
Is that plastic that you put over the label? If so, how'd you do it?I have one with the label still. This one’s a 1937, 6 1/2 oz. I have a 1936 from northern Michigan with the paper label.

It is plastic. It’s just wrapped around the label and taped on the back. The tape touches the glass but not the label of course. This way, it won’t spin or slide up or down. I use the 8x11 page protectors and cut them up. Get the archival ones safe for the old paper.Is that plastic that you put over the label? If so, how'd you do it?
