I saw this offered the other day. I was going to bid, but not because it is a 1934 ACL. It isn't, IMO. I don't think they had two color technology down just then. I think it's a 1941, with a mottled/damaged 1 after the 4 on the base, or 40 something. I can't believe what it went for. $332!! I have no info on Tick Tock Beverages. What do you all think?

I can see it being a desirable one with graphics like that, I can't think of any other space-themed ACL bottles although I'm sure there are some out there. Seems like a lot for one in as rough condition as that though, maybe a very rare bottle?
The date code I can't comment on since I'm not familiar enough with Owens Illinois markings, although I agree that 1934 seems pretty unlikely. I'm not sure when two-colour labels were introduced but the graphics alone don't look like something you would expect that early.

There is a white/orange amber glass u7p 1935 bottle out there from the "Oldest ACL" thread. There also is a one color 7up green Alkaline Reaction, also 1935. The only 1934 ACL seen as far as I know has been the one color "Jumbo A Super Cola" bottle.
