I love the old coke bottles! I found one from the soviet union a while back in a storm drain. Its marked with the coca cola ensignia on the one side in english and the other side is in some other communist block writing.
I would love to have one that old though.

Cool stuff. Funny, I found an old Pepsi bottle the other day that reminds me of it. Yours is prob. alot older, though. Guess those guys were in competition back then too. Nice find,

Ian

Would love to know when that one was made...If you have a local bottling plant nearby, you might take it by there and see if someone could give you any info on it.

I saw one of these "square" Coca Cola bottles in an antique shop about 1970. Have always kicked myself for not buying it. Never saw another one. It is a neat bottle. Let us know if you find out what it is worth these days.

Thanks for all the replies! I am thinking about selling it as I don't really collect bottles. I also have the Pat. D bottles (the regular type bottles) one with Norfolk VA and a couple with Elizabeth City NC.
