Great bottle!
The front label is a repro of their swim suit-seven bubble label from the 1940's early 1950's.
Thanks packrat. I just have hung onto it. I guess like all the other treasures, (husband calls junk). Kids will say, "why did she hang onto all this stuff.
My one and only grandaughter says, "Grandma you have everything!!"
But she loves going through my 35+ plastic shoe boxes of sorted by color, items and names of costume jewelry. I said someday it will be all yours...Ha Ha.
Wonderful memories of the iconic bottle, rare now. I remember going to my grandmothers in the early 70's and she would always pull out a bottle of 7-up
for me. Wonderful history here - Phil.
Thanks Phil.....
When I was young, If you were sick, stomach etc. The old bottles of 7up would be on the counter for sure. Glad it brought back memories for you.
