I picked these up at the show today, but the most impressive thing of all was not the bottles, but the museum. It completely blows away the official Coke museum in Atlanta. The collection is simply unbelievable. It's packed with the earlier stuff that we all like without all the later "I'd like to teach the world to sing..." crap of the '70s, etc. I took pictures which do it no justice so I'm not even posting them, but telling all of you that you just have to see it. Not only is the collection incredible, but the manner in which it's presented is first class all the way. I'm sure glad I went now and will definitely be going back.



All are in great untumbled condition, but the Stuart is flawless and has an applied top too which is not as often seen in Hutches as tooled tops. Common bottle, but I had to have it.

Where is it exactly? I live in Temple.

Cedartown is about 5 miles south of Rome. Looks like you'd need to head west on 78 to Bremen, then north on US27 straight to it. 20 miles or so?

I’ve never heard of this bottle show. Is it once a year or more often? And where at in Cedartown? I live in LaFayette, GA and love old bottles and cans! This is really interesting

I meant the museum, sorry for any confusion.

Seems my image of the flyer dissappeared, but the museum is at 209 Main Street in downtown Cedartown, Georgia in the old Coca-Cola bottling plant. Parking is behind the museum. This was the first annual bottle show in Cedartown and serves as the new location for the decades old Rome show which was held in the old Rock House. The museum is in the process of adding new space for a bigger show next year. I'll try to post notice of it a little earlier next year. Sorry, everybody.

Here's the disappearing flyer.
