yes aqua I did bid on it but was not going very hi You got a good deal

What do you think it would go for? There's a similar orange crush bottle on ebay right now that the seller says is olive green, but the pictures really make it look aqua. Good luck if you decide to go for it. http://www.ebay.com/itm/1...ksid=p3984.m1423.l2649

I got three just like that on on ebay I do not have green

So the green bottle is unlisted?

 

[richey]

It is not listed in any of my books but it is not that rare I have seen it for sale a couple of times. There was one on ebay a couple of times that has been listed for $145 it has never sold. I would say yours is about $25 to $50 but Orange crush is the only thing I collect

Tooled finishing continued after the introduction of bottle machines well into the 1920s. I'd say the emphasis here regarding the dating of the olive colored bottle isn't so much how it was made but who made it? The earliest date I have been able to find for ... "It's embossed around the shoulder: Orange-Crush Bottling Co. On the heel it says Purity Beverage Corp. On the other side of the heel it says Cap. 6 Fl. Oz./ Binghamton, N.Y." ... is 1921. So the bottle couldn't have been made any earlier than when the Purity Beverage Corporation began operation.

Yeah, I have seen the green krinkly bottle, but haven't been able to find one yet. I may be wrong, but I believe the olive green flavor bottle I have from Binghamton is harder to find, but not as desirable.
