I was walking through the woods and found it in a mound of leaves. I think it maybe old and I have never known of Pigeon Forge having a bottling company. It has raised lettering that says "REGISTERED 6 1/2 FL. OZ., PROPERTY OF PIGEON FORGE BOTTLING COMPANY, THIS BOTTLE NOT TO BE SOLD" all of this is on one side of the bottle and on the back side it says " CHATT 21". It has one seam down the side and it seems to be heavy compared to other bottles. also, it has 2 bubbles 2 inches from the top of the neck and 4 bubbles on the bottom of the bottle.
The bottle you have is call a center slug plate because of the area of the embossing.These are more desirable that the regular straight side bottles. I haven't ever seen this one, I collect mostly N.C. bottles. My personal opinion after 25 years collecting, I'ts a real good one!! Steve
THIS IS A VERY RARE BOTTLE . I HAVE ONLY HAD 2 OF THE PIGEON FORGE BOTTLES IN 40 YEARS DIGGING IN THE KNOXVILLE AREA .I WOULD VALUE IT $125.00 +
