What is the ULTIMATE ACL bottle?

[Sir.Bottles]

I just curious what is the most valuable/Top dollar Acl? & how much it worth?

That is a great question, I wouldnt know for sure but a 30below from sandiego is ext rare and shows that over $500.00 was paid for it once and the Alamo beverage from San Antiono has brought over $300. for regular release acl bottles . Iam sure there are some proto types worth more but these are the biggest dollar regular circulated bottles I know of. Waiting to see others weigh in certain cleo and big chiefs can bring $$$$ also

OMG!
Big Hit is regularly priced $700 and up.
Brown Boy, too, with cities, is that range high...the green 7oz. one in top grades nearly double that.
Blue and white Rocket is impossible to find that cheap.
Uncle Luke would bring that $700 price tag easily.
Three color Stone Fort is rare enough to be there.
Made Rite Root Beer & Moody's Shot O'Grape from Little Rock, 1940, are RARE (2 or 3 known of each).
Clown Cola from Rector, AR, of which there are five ongrades known...Fox Deluxe, of which there are three known.

The West has many htfs in those price ranges: Chico, Pedro Popis still unique to my knowledge. How does one price that? Thousands?
Most regions/states have their toughies. I'd grant that there are plenty of acls that could/should go for $500+

Birdie? Hard to find, and nearly a grand, but I've seen more of them than any of the above...

Have to nominate the hillbilly dews? A clear Barney & Ally will run u up to $1000. While the hillbilly jug will really stick it to u with a whopping $5000+++.

It tickles your innards, and takes your wallet! Yay!

Here's the Mountain Dew Party Jug that Anthonicia mentioned, which consistently sells for $3,000.00+ whenever one shows up on eBay. It's a No Deposit-No Return with a screw-on cap.

My personal favorite is this Big Hit that Fishnuts mentioned. I don't own it but held the one Rick Sweeney owns who valued it at about $1,000.00. Rick said there are only about ten of them that he knows of.

Here's a 30 Below (from San Diego, Ca.) that Splante mentioned. I used to own a ratty looking one that I paid $75.00 for and sold for $150.00. I'll probably never find another one, but the guy I sold it to just had to have it and twisted my arm until I said "uncle." I know local collectors who would gladly pay $1,000.00 for one in mint condition.

The label has an Eskimo and a Penguin on it. But just how that relates to San Diego is anyone's guess.

Speaking of the Mountain Dew Party Jug, here's a close up of the label. But notice it's different than the label I posted previously. Although I can't say for certain (because I have never seen both sides of what I suspect is a wrap-around label) this particular one with the banjo player is definitely different. However, I do not think there were two variations. Or was there?

For comparison ...

The info box on the lower left in this pic is not visible on the other one and is probably an indicator of a wrap-around label. ???
