    My Great Uncle worked for Coca-Cola,
    This was kept in his garage, he then handed them down to me.
    I treasured them all the years I've had them.
    I contacted Coca-Cola to find out some history about it, no such luck.
    What they told me the item is rare one of a kind. I even went as far to search up to this point, and admit never seen or heard of this unique item.
    The description: The crate is wooden, measures 3 3/4" wide, 2 3/4" length,
    1 1/8" tall.
    Bottles: 7 clear glass bottles uncapped, shows bubbles in glass.
    4 dark color bottles, capped, which pulls apart to become lighters.
    1 gold color bottle, capped, which pulls apart to become a lighter.
    All bottles are 2 1/2 " tall.
    Mystery to the history of this unique, one of a kind item.

      It's not clear to me exactly what Coke said was a 1 of a kind .

      It's a mix of mini's. The crate and empty bottles are part of a 1930's mini 12 bottle case. The lighters are 1950's. Nifty promotional items. Each fairly common in the collector's market. But one-of-a-kind in a sentimental sense, it's a neat little collection from your uncle.

      Well, I can look at this collection and see a hundred dollar bill. It's all about perspective Mr. Lucas!
