I can't find this mottle anywhere on the internet. I looked for Rocket Beverages, checked the city, everywhere and I just can't find this bottle. It is a "Duraglas" bottle and it marked G710. It has a date of 9/1948. Does anyone know this company or history on this bottle???

Rocket is listed in the ACL book : Collecting Applied Color Label Soda Bottles. In on-grade condition the value is easily $100.00 +. In this condition...roughly one quarter of that, or less. Everything else you need to know is on the bottle: city, state, size, etc. Oh, and the Owens/Illinios dating codes do indicate the year as 1948, but the number to the left of the logo is not a dating number but the code indicating the O/I plant where the bottle was made. 9, I recall indicates Streator, Il.
