VIN MARIANI ~ FRENCH WINE COCA ~ COCA COLA

That's a late 1880's bottle. Mine was dug in Atlanta at the Maddox Park Dump. I've had three over the years and they are a $200 bottle.

Thanks again. You always come through in a pinch! I had a feeling you might have one of those.

Thanks for the picture, too. Much better than the one I posted. Do you have any pics of his other bottles?

Wine Coca Logo from the 1890's ceramic fountain syrup dispenser. The logo is color on the dispenser.

Wine Coca name was changed to Wine-co in 1908 and a new trade mark was registered. There may have been some pressure from another Atlanta firm that prompted the name change.

I have pics of several Pemberton bottles and lots of ads. I even have copies of the minutes on company letterhead from the 1894 meeting where the Pemberton Medicine Company name was changed to the Wine Coca Company.

I can't post them here due to non-disclosure agreement.

I understand and am happy with what you already shared. I'll continue to look around and see what I can find regarding his other concoctions. I know most of the names.

Gracias'
