I am pretty bad at picking out rare ACLs that don't hearken from Rhode Island, but I'm finally getting to the point where I'm not afraid to take a chance. These are for sale (best offer) or trade for those interested.The Pico Club looked nice and unusual. I'm not sure why you would have a green bottle with a white and green label! The little Indian on the shoulder did me in.

The Dad's Root Beer had three things going for it. Yes, I know it was a common brand, but the half gallon size, three color label, and amber bottle did help reel me in.

I like the Dad's Papa size. Recently picked one up and while cleaning it, I noticed how there would be almost no way to pour it without a fine head of foam on each glass until the bottle was almost empty. Glug, glug, glug all the way down.The faces of the Dad's family seem to have been drawn in the fine tradition of "Mad" and "Cracked" artists. They're awesomely kitschy to me.
