Yup Mae West style introduced in 1955. I see the green outline has faded. What size is it?...7, 8, or 10

the ones that say orange crush tend to be a bit older , from late 50's > 60's I think .

usually I find them swimming in the lakes here , never really dug that many if any . I have a couple in the garage in my extra boxes

Yes that'd be 1959, pretty much the last year they had Orange between Crush on clear bottles...other than the later brown ones from 1965-66

Nice bottle... a bit unusual. Firstly the stippled neck is not common, but does occur on some Mae West without an apparent consistent pattern. Secondly the word Drink, which normally appears below the word Crush, does not on your bottle. Perhaps like the green shade around the word Crush, it has worn off or faded. The other side may or may not show the ingredients. This group of Orange Crush bottles, introduced in the mid-1960's, is probably the group which shows the most number of variations.

Thanks for the info. Looking closely I can see where the green outline once was around the word CRUSH. I don't see any signs of Drink ever being on there. Pic of the back side I posted above showing ingredients. LEON.
