One thing I have been looking for is vintage chocolate drink bottles and this is one. It was made from the 1950s until the early 200s although the later ones may have been a reissue plus thus would have a UPC symbol on them. These were sold in the southeast, Florida, Tennessee, Alabama etc. Usually from a vending machine. I recall getting drinks like this from vending machines in San Bernardino long ago although it was different brand.
Nice! Do you have a 'Devil Shake'? From the makers of Pepsi Cola. They are harder to find bottles.
A clear picture of the base embossing may help date it. ~Hint hint. ~
Thank you very much Thomas. First for me too.
Thank you very much iggy. Do not have one but will keep an eye out.
Thank you very much SpiritBear. Will work on that tonight.
It's usually easy to date if (I) or a G in square is on the base. Currently, all I can say is, it's likely 1960s (zip-code).
There you go SB. Looks like an "L" and "73" on top. nWith "1130" "214" below.
Those codes could stand for 'L' might be for Laurens Glass Co. or Latchford Glass Co. '73' is probably the date - 1973. This logo was used into the 70's. I could be mistaken but I think I am pretty close with the info.
Thank you very much iggy. Looks like time to amend the description.
Thank you
