Not my oldest by any means, but I like the San Antonio mark on bottom.

I worked at a watermelon farm. In 1968 they had 16 oz Cokes for a dime at their stand; 20 cents if you took the bottle to go.Cool old coke. I remember driving my bike all over town looking for bottles in ditches and along roadways and sidewalks.....and made some decent money for candy and a slurpee. I couldn't believe that people would just throw away ten cents like that. Life was good back then, especially if i nabbed a bigger bottle on my route, those paid 20 cent.
Yes, for the 6-1/2 ozI seem to recall a nickel per bottle
I used to play that game at work and always won. I was the one who filled the pop machine.😎We used to buy our cokes and then bet on whose came from the farthest city.
Good gravy, you must be near as old as me. I got to fill the big red Coke cooler in my mom & dad's store.I used to play that game at work and always won. I was the one who filled the pop machine.😎
When I’m too lazy to dig, I drive along this coulee and pick them out of the bank. If I’m lucky paint still on there. I give them out to co-workers/ family because they make awesome vases. If cracked, I cut them into necklaces. Nice find!Not my oldest by any means, but I like the San Antonio mark on bottom.
Ouch! A Caddy paint job!Brings back memories of when I was riding my bike looking for coke bottles to turn in and get 2 cents for each one. I had a basket attached to the front of my bike, hit a curb and a bottle bounced out and hit a parked car and the driver was sitting in it. He got out asked me my name and phone number and I gave it to him. He called my Dad and wanted his car painted. My Dad had it painted and it was a big car...a Cadillac...this was 1957 I believe. Nice bottle you found!
