very old coke bottle
Written by Derek on May 29, 2009, 915 viewsI picked this old Coke bottle up at an antique market. I’m really fond of it. It’s a pre-1926 Coca-cola bottle. It’s quite heavy, and as you can see, the logo emossed logo is a little primative. In fact, back then they used wooden molds to make the bottles, so often times you would see little imperfections. If I really wanted to show off this bottle, I’d put a drop of vegetable oil in it and roll it arround inside. This would fill in the cracks and make the bottle more transparent.
Check out this interesting article on the early history of Coke bottles. The author describes Hutchinson bottles and the terrible “corks” used to contain the beverage.
