Smaller embosssing

[acls]

I picked up this neat, early 7up. It is unusual in several ways. It has the red label as opposed to the more standard orange label. It is not marked, but by the feel and look of the bottle I believe it to be a 6oz or 6.5oz and not a 7oz. The most unusual feature is the embossed neck label. The embossed "7up" is much smaller than other embossed 7ups than I have seen. All in all it's a pretty cool name brand variation bottle.

I just noticed it is marked 7ounces on the back label. It feels smaller, but I guess not.

Means I want to add one to my collection.
Be aware they are in red also.
Never seen one before.
How about that, red.
Repaint, how?
Why?
