Here is an item that some of you bottle and advertising collectors may enjoy. It is a Hires Root Beer 6-pack carton from the late 1940's to early 1950's I believe. I found it at a flea market. First time heading out to look for things last Spring I believe.
The three bottles on the right with all of them being displayed are from the early to mid 1950's and the three on the left are from the late 1940's. They include a variety of variations and all are bottled under the authority of The Charles E. Hires Co. Philadelphia PA.
Thank you for looking as always my friends. Take care and have an awesome Sunday! Peace.... : )
