Two views of an old Spur Cola bottle, which was produced by Canada Dry.
There's a 1947 date code on this Owens-Illinois bottle.
Then there are two views 0f a 70s era Zep's quart bottle. Sadly, Zep's (Eagle Bottling) as did most other local bottlers, ceased operations as the big bottlers priced them out of business.

Thank you, bottle-bud!
OMG Ted these all look very tastey:) yummy:) and love the bottles:)
Thank you, Bellin68! I have an appreciation for such things myself. There is something about nostalgia....
Thanks for the comment on the appeal of the contents. Since the products are no longer available, I had to use some "studio tricks" to get the effect. The real products, now they were tasty! I wonder if the old recipes are lying around with some other family treasures?!?!? The Blues Bros. got the band back together, maybe the family scions can get the "soda pop business back together?"
your very welcome Ted_Straub :) and thankyou for sharing and i hope they do get soda pop business back together:)
Yes, redoing those original recipes would be grand!!!!
