I'm with Pat.
Fancy embossed for sure.
Art deco styled, umm, okay if you like. Art deco influenced, sure. Faygo has a waist, Nehi has a date? Neither proof of art deco-ness. Eye of the beholder, thing...but with practice and experience one can understand it all.
That said, I don't believe that any bottles, like the ones pictured, from the 50's and 60's are, or deserve to be called art deco. It's a matter of timing. They are just not...imho.
My opinion counts here, I believe, as I display as many fancy decorated non-acl, non-slug plated, embossed bottles in many different glass colors as that book does. Not the same ones, mind you
