Fantastic, thank you! I've seen the first article, The Other Side of the Story, but not this one. Going to go read it right now

I found the link to the 7up article. Thanks, Bill Lockhart. Cecil Munsey did not create this one -

Thank You Sir!
Went to an antique store that has a bunch of 7up bottles stored outside. Dug through a box covered in spiderwebs and dodged the spider that was running around underneath the bottles. Found another bottle with the unusual back, and this one was made by Glenshaw Glass. I thought the letter on the lip was an O, but that would be 1943. Probably a U. I would have bought it, but when I tried to go inside, I found out they were closed it is very worn, but I can tell that it is from Minnesota.
Also found some info on why lithium was banned in 1949. Comes from a 1980 journal article called "The Checkered History of Lithium in Medicine"

Wow, great information about Lithium! Also digging in that kind of box is like a dream come true for me, you know there's got to be "Gold" in there! Ha! Thank you!
