Need help with dating ROOT bottle

[Jess98]

I paid 120 for it, but with the shipping charges and stupid customs fees it ended up costing me more

Not bad though, really great find, Are you new to collecting?

 

[Jess98]

I started collecting pop bottles when I was a kid, stopped for a good 14 years then started up again last year in my mid 20s, it got a little out of hand in 2023 and I’ve collected a lot in a short amount of time to the point of having to delete my eBay account and fb pages as it got too expensive and have no more shelf space, it’s a true addiction! Ive collected mostly Canadian straight side cokes, Hutchinson bottles, squat sodas, ginger beers, internal thread bottles, etc.. in total I have 137 bottles and I think that’s more than enough lol

I started last year and now have 42 bottles. all acl and one ketchup.

Nice! I have about 20 ACL bottles but am more into turn of the century stuff. Up here in Saskatchewan you don’t really find too many historic dump sites but it’s still a thrill to find old acl bottles from the later decades, if you’re into good graphics to display then ACL is the way to go

Yeah I’ve noticed there’s way more antique stores and flea markets in the states, way more people and a lot of history down there!
