Western Mineral Water Co.
St. Louis, Missouri
Following are the addresses and approx. time lime at each location.
1609 S. Broadway (1904-1907)
2311 S. 7th Street (1909-1919)
616-618 Blow Street (1929-1946)
There was an Albert Spellmeyer that was list as president from approx. 1911-1927, could have been earlier, I am not sure at this time. A Frank Schnellman was listed as president from approx. 1929-1936.
Camel Brand Soda Water was bottled in in all flavors. Western also bottled Virginia Dare and a soda called Colobeer.
I need a Colobeer for my collection, was probably a paper label and hard to find.
Love the camel motif!
Yea, the camels are cool! I would like to find a sign advertising Camel Soda.
Spellmeyer was president of the company in 1905 up and including 1911plus.
Thanks for the info, Ulee.
My great great Grandfather Michael Bardol was the VP of this company. Neat to see
I did another story on Western on another website site that also shows a copy of a photo of your ancestor.
