no it dont bother me but thanks.
but you no you dont have to be mean .
But can you tell me why 2 of them are stamped,and one is not.I mean it is but with a upside down t with a c over it ,and with this stamp means
i wish i knew at lest what the stamp means
it is missing 2 stamps and that 1 differ stamp you thing it is a miss print maybe
They are a very cool set of carriers, great condition. They will display or sell well! The stamp you describe could be a maker's stamp or even indicate trademark info. Thanks for showing your nice collection here.
but why does only one have this stamp and the other 2 does not
Different maker's or different versions. Many, many of these carriers were produced over the years. Can you imagine how the number of machines set up to stamp, cut, print, and fabricate these little honeys, how many production runs too place over the years? I'm sure the dies were changed out thousands of times. Slight variances are common in manufacturing.
oh i see so i probley got 2 diff makers
iff you look at 2 of the pics you can see the big stamp in one and the one that dont have the big stamp has the wierd stamp on it
Daddy_Nobucks is right, their was two different makers of these carriers all together they made 4 different alumn carriers, one 12-pack, and three, 6-packs. If your interested in seeing the 4 different carriers click on my name i have all four of them.
i did not see them but i got offerd 100 bucks for all of them should i take it or hold on to them i got the coca cola company looking it to them right now and i am also going to go to a coca cola museum in monroe louisiana and see what they can do for me

Follow that link and look at picture 4, it shows the four different alumn carriers. If i were you i would not sell all 3 for 100$ the 12-pack alone is worth that. Try to get alteast 150$ if your planning on selling them all together, ebay is a popular site for selling these carriers, thats were i got most my alumn carriers.
ok on the ones like mine in your pic i see you got 3 6 packs but on one six pack what does it say in the top left corner may i ask
ok nvm
i got it
one more thing in the bottom on the inside does it have the stamp with the c and the upside down t over it
and you got a very nice collection of coca cola products
one is just like yours,
the other one says enjoy coke on one side, drink Coca-cola on the other side.
and the third says 6 bottles Coca-Cola 25cents plus deposit on both sides.
yea its got the c and the upside down t over it and thanks for the comment :)
i see one has a lik trade mark on the inside but cant tell what it is but kind looks like mine and dont no what t means do you
you are so very welcome .i ran across mine in this 90 year old ladies attic she told me to scrap them but i could not do that lol
The stamp on the inside is just the marker of this carrier, two different companies made these carriers for coca cola and they would stamp the inside to show off their company name. not sure what the companies full name is, sorry, im pretty sure they were both US companies tho these carriers are alot more common in US. the alumn carriers are really nothing too special they made tons of them and their still very easy to find
lol yea their worth alot more than scrap the 3 together i would pay 150$, thats only if i didnt already have them :)
LMAO TGBWC is right these are harder to find in canada so canadians are willing to pay more for them. you guys are able to find them for around 35$, canadians will pay shipping on top of that and taxes.
lol well i am not got to sell them for 100 sry trever looks like a really got coke collector and has a real nice collection and has helped me out more than any one on here but thamks
Nice carriers paulduzat!!!

Thanks pauldauzat, but i must say TGBWC is a person i ask for help/info on coca cola items all the time. he has been collecting alot longer than me, if he thinks 100$ is fair (for a US buyer) hes right, i would take his word over mine. the only reason i think you could get more is if you used ebay and allowed shipping to Canada. Canadians will pay more for these carrier only because their US carriers and they are harder to come by in Canada.
