Hi all! Back again with another bottle and more questions! Emerald green Rumford Chemical Works bottle in nearly perfect condition. I’ve found a lot of the teal ones online, but not much about the greens. Any info on age and value is much appreciated!!

Hi again! It sure is a pretty bottle... I've seen them in a few shades of blues and blue/green... can't say for certain if I've seen that crisp clear 7-up green before tho...

The bottles come in emerald green, teal (most common), and cobalt blue (rarest) colors. The most common size is 5 1/2, but also comes in larger (though rarer) 7 1/2" size.

No patent date. Just a 9, or a 6... Depending on which way is up.

All I've seen is the teal ones & dug 2 different size teal ones before. Common in Teal but never seen a green one before. Nice Bottle. Leon.

I have a green one that isn’t quite as bright - I will have to dig it out - yours is clean.

These are the only two easily accessible and they’re the standard two colors I see all the time around here
