This bottle says "SODA WATER" & PROPERTY OF COCA COLA" etc.. I can't read description on thumb-nail right now.
When I would be traveling in the States yrs. ago, I would hit flea-markets & for some reason would pick-up old coke bottles if they were $2 or less & have about a doz. now. The other 2 pics I just threw in & can only identify a "Hutch" right now but details r on the cards. According to info supplied by C.C. yrs ago, my collection would bring about $800 but with the depression, I would be lucky to get my orig. investment back it seems.
Back to the square sided C.C. soda bottle. Does anybody know anything about it? Did C.C. sell plain soda water or was it meant to mixed with C.C. syrup or rum?
Coca Cola BottlesAs impossible as it may seem today, Coca-Cola did not originally intend to …
Square sided Coca-Cola bottles are from the 20s and 30s and contained flavor soda waters produced by Coca-Cola. Bottles are very common and worth around $5-$10 each.
Just when I thought I had an odd-ball worth maybe $1K! Aren't you old enough to know when to lie to an old guy?
Ya know, now that I think about it, this square Coke bottle is very rare. Square = Rare. Yes....yes this is definitely worth $1,000....maybe even $5,000.
TGB, that's more like it! I'll let you have it for a mere $2K so that I don't have to go thru the hassles of marketing & possibly being crushed by the crazed hordes of buyers.
