My first question Pepsi Bottle

[Mltoys]

So My parents had this since at least the early 70’s that I can remember.
There are 3 marks on bottom 1 A 60 or 50.
I dont know the age of it but my father did own a grocery store in the 50’s.

The RARE ODD thing is that my father kept it sealed since there is half of a cork floating in it.

This is me

Thanks

While you are waiting for a member(s) to pipe in - I searched Google and found an interesting site called: Wondering How to Identify an Old Pepsi Bottle?. The site discusses things like "...Observe the company name on the embossing or the label. If it is Pepsi-Cola, then the bottle is definitely a pre-1953 make, as the term 'Cola' does not occur on bottles manufactured later, which are not classified as antique..."

I believe the piece of cork is the lining of the bottle cap. Cool bottle.

I agree ! Bottle caps used to have Cork Lining till 80's I Think

the Style dates to 58 so I think the Number would be 60

Which, I Think would be the Manufacture Date of the Bottle.

It is a Returnable, So realistically, It could have been re-Filled in the 70's.
