do u think u could help?
What does is say on the front of glass>>1901 and? Dave
Chattanooga Glass Company, founded 1901.
BTW, this isn't a coke bottle.
I can guess, but not detailed enough photos. If you could send me a picture of the base, top and mold line. I can give you a better appraisal.
This appears to be a promo chattonooga glass co. bottle. from circa 1951. This doesn't have any "50th anniversery" stuff on it anywhere, so it puzzles me. But It looks the same to all the others mostly. It's probably worth 5-10 bucks, but I'll need more info and pictures to authenticate this statement. you could have something here.

the front of the bottle says chattanooga glass co., can not find a mold line, will send photos of top and bottom, as soon as i can get them
Here is what the Anniversary bottle has on it, this one lacks the 'Since the days of old' phrase. And the Anniversary bottle has Anniversary on it with the 1901-1951 on it as well.
A Chattanooga Glass Company 50th Anniversary bottle.
The company was in production from 1927-1988. It is
embossed with "Since the days of old, The Chattanooga
Glass Co. has served beverage bottlers with the
finest bottles that skilled craftsmen and efficient
machinery can produce, 50th Anniversary, 1901-1951".
There is a number "2" on the bottom. It measures 7"
tall; 2" in diameter at the base. Anyone? Dave
