I have 3 different ones , wondering if anyone knows of others using the same bottle shape. Just realized the 2 I left behind last week are different sizes.
Uncle Joe - ft worth
California - dallas 2 sizes
Aunt Ida - lousiana
All 3 three of these sodas have a family connection. Some are 3rivers some are not. Did any others sodas use this bottle?. Thanks Sam

Sam, those are cool as hell. I'm really a BIM guy but the art deco 1920's- 30's soda bottles are cool! I don't know of any other like yours but I have some that are similar. GOOOD finds! thanks for showing us these. I hope you can discover more.

yes there was other bottlers using that shape of bottle , not sure how many others were using it

I have a bottle from Orangeville Ontario which is pretty close to the exact shape and design of yours and its miles north of Texas and Louisiana .

so maybe the design was featured in a catalogue ? or beverage makers were somehow aware of it ?

mine has a mark " design reg'd A. S. W. 1930 " , contents 6 1/2 fl oz - Walkers Beverages Orangeville

can't recall off hand any other bottlers in Ontario Canada who used this bottle , only one I've seen here

Sam, I took a look through the few 1920's-40's soda bottles that i have and none of them are exactly like yours.
If you'll indulge me here are the ABM sodas that are in my collection from northern NJ..
