General Interest ~
I have been researching my "ColaRootBeer" bottles, and just received this very helpful and courteous message from San Diego collector, Mike Bryant. Now I'm really on the prowl for the variations I don't have! I post this information primarily to emphasize how educational and helpful attending bottle shows can be. Everyone I spoke with last Saturday was extremely helpful. I really would like to join a bottle club, but personal circumstances make it almost impossible. I plan to take Mike up on his invatation one of these days, and will post photos of the ColaRootBeer bottles I don't have. {Thanks, Mike}
Mike's message :
I have three variants of the San Diego Cola Root Beer bottle. Two are white labels, each being a different size (one is a 9 oz and the other 12 oz). I also have a 12 oz that has a three color label, brown, white & blue, and is pretty hard to find. They all date to the 1940's. I tried taking a picture for you through my glass display case, but it didn't come out. You will have to come over some day and see my collection.
