City directories tell me that Dr. Cherry was located on Menard street here in St. Louis, Missouri from about 1914 to around 1933.
I have found two, Registration of Fictitious Name documents that state Shamrock Bottling Co. & Dr. Cherry Co. were doing business at 5060 Arsenal Street on the same date in 1941. This is the same address as The Champay Co..
Google maps show me that this building is still in use today and you can read the Shamrock Bottling Co. in block on the front of the building.
Vess Bottling Co. was two buildings down at 5020 also still in use today as another company has acquired the building.
It would be nice to find another paper label Dr. Cherry in better condition but as you know paper label bottles are hard to find.
I wonder if Columbia M/W became Shamrock? The research never ends!
