December 25, 1923 the Christmas Patent Coke. It's shown on some of the older Embossed lettering 6 ounce bottles. I have a few of them with the Coke still in them. On a related note. Dr Pepper use to have a motto or slogan “Good for life” on it. The feds made them remove it. The first commercial Coca Cola bottles were not green they were amber and I think a few even were even white. Just a few tidbits from a bottle collector :>}

Very cool! The price of Coke remained a nickel from 1886-1959, which is an amazingly long time. Can you think of anything that had that price-point endurance?


Early Coca Cola bottle circa 1899 - referred to as Hutchinson style.
