    One thing I have been looking for is vintage chocolate drink bottles and this is one. It was made from the 1950s until the early 200s although the later ones may have been a reissue plus thus would have a UPC symbol on them. These were sold in the southeast, Florida, Tennessee, Alabama etc. Usually from a vending machine. I recall getting drinks like this from vending machines in San Bernardino long ago although it was different brand.

      Nice! Do you have a 'Devil Shake'? From the makers of Pepsi Cola. They are harder to find bottles.

      A clear picture of the base embossing may help date it. ~Hint hint. ~

      It's usually easy to date if (I) or a G in square is on the base. Currently, all I can say is, it's likely 1960s (zip-code).

      There you go SB. Looks like an "L" and "73" on top. nWith "1130" "214" below.
    8. iggy iggy, 8 years ago
      Those codes could stand for 'L' might be for Laurens Glass Co. or Latchford Glass Co. '73' is probably the date - 1973. This logo was used into the 70's. I could be mistaken but I think I am pretty close with the info.
