Need Help Identifying These Soda Bottles

[hammond958]

Anyone please help! I've got a massive collection of old soda bottles (mainly coke) that I'm trying to determine the value before selling. If you know of a comprehensive website and/or book that will help in identification please post or email me at shannon_meeks@hotmail.com

I've also got 3 bottles that I need help identifying as I have never seen them before. If you have any information, please post or email me. A picture of them is below and the only information that I have on them is the following which came from the bottles themselves: Left--Heavy 7 Fl OZ Sandersville, GA; Center--diamond emblem, light 10 FL OZ.; Right--palm trees, 10 FL OZ, Monticello, FL, Property of Coca Cola

The one on the left is a flavor bottle, middle is a NDNR, and right is a Royal Palm about same as the first. Not a lot of value but about the best of all the bottles you have listed.

There was a post a day or two ago that was looking for anything with SANDER in the name, that may be your best bet here. The 4-H 10 oz. comm. is a cut above the rest also.

Considering the picture is so small I can't say much, ut my opinion is the Moticello bottle is gonna be the best. Since I don't know much about the other two towns my opinion could be wrong. I live in Tallahassee, Fl. which is only about 30 miles or so from Moticello, and as a local collector most everything from that little town brings good money. But again the picture is small I can't say what a dollar amount is for your ottle but it could be a good one.

Thanks so much for your quick responses, they have really helped, but I'm still curious if anyone knows a date that these were made? Are these considered straight sided bottles? Also, what does NDNR stand for?

If needed, you can see a better picture of them and all the other bottles that I have on my website at http://www.hammondphotographyitemsforsale.blogspot.com If you click any of the pictures on the right hand side it will open up a photo album for that collection. Once the album is opened and a picture is selected, there should be a small magnifying glass near the butterfly in the upper right hand side of the page that will allow you to zoom.

If anyone is up for a challenge, I also have several other coke bottles with the town names stamped on the bottoms that I'm trying to identify the year they were made and the value. I know some towns are more valuable than others, Columbus, GA is a good one I here, but what about others? Does anyone know a website that can help determine this? Can anyone provide their expertise in this area?

Again, thanks for all your help. All comments are greatly appreciated and well noted. I also apologize for being so troublesome, but I really don't know anywhere else to go for information. Thanks so much for everything!

Just curious, what would any of you pay per each of these bottles if you were interested? I'm not asking for you to buy them, but I'm having trouble determining their value. Thanks for your help. Hope this link works out and opens up better.
