A while back, I found some old Coca-Cola bottles and an old Pepsi Bottle.
Two of the Coca-Cola bottles are clear with a hobble-skirt design. On one side they say "Coke" in large letters, "Trademark ® 10 FL OZ" underneath. On the other side, it says "Coca-Cola" with "Trademark ® 10 FL OZ" again underneath. On the neck of the bottle on either side it says "NO REFILL". On the base of the bottle, it says "NO REFILL", "LG-959" They then differ. One has "C16" and "81" on the bottom. The other has "C11" and also "81" on the base.
One Coca-Cola bottle I found was a green hobble-skirt. It was roughly the same size as the other 2, but slightly thinner. It was heavier, most likely made with more glass, and was 6 oz instead. On one side it said, "Coca-Cola" with "TRADEMARK REGISTERED" and "MIN.CONTENTS 6 FL. OZS" underneath. The other side read, "Coca-Cola" with "TRADEMARK REGISTERED" again and "BOTTLE PAT. D-105529" underneath. On the base, it read "SALT LAKE CITY UTAH". Now through some research, I have already dated it to what I think is around the Great Depression/WWII era (Late 1930-Early 1950s). Correct me if I'm wrong.
The Pepsi bottle I have is clear with a spiral pattern going along the body. near the neck, on one side, it says "Pepsi" with "10 FL. OZ" directly underneath. On the other side, it has "Pepsi-Cola" with "10 FL. OZ" direclty underneath. On one side near the base, it says "NO REFILL". The other side near the base reads "DISPOSE OF PROPERLY" On the base, it reads "LG 238 82" and "21D"
The reason I am bringing this up now is that I found another today. It is exactly like the first two mentioned above, but on the base, it reads, "C25" and "81". Now if anyone could help me date some of these, that would be great. If possible and anyone is willing, could someone maybe try and give me a price estimate that I could get from any of these? Thanks in advance.
If needed, I can provide pictures.
