Soda and Seltzer Bottles

About Antique Soda and Seltzer Bottles

Soda and seltzers became popular in the U.S. with the introduction of artificially carbonated water in 1832. But until the 1892 invention of the “Crown Cork Bottle Seal,” the bottles were stopped with corks, which would dry up and release the fizz. Most surviving soda bottles come from Coca-Cola or Pepsi, though many smaller brands can be found. And most are post-1899, the year the automatic bottle maker was introduced.
