Here is the rarer of the two Coca-Cola bottles.  There is an amber variant of this bottle which is even harder to find.

Early Aqua Coca-Cola Bottle (circa 1916?)



This is an early Coca-Cola bottle that was bottled in Toronto, Canada.  I remember reading that these were made around 1904 to 1916;  I am not sure as to precisely when this one was made.  In my next post, I'll show the more rare green glass variant.  Both bottles were apparently dug up at the old Expo 86 grounds.

Blog Introduction.

This blog is going to be about old bottles.  I will feature an old bottle or group of bottles in every post, as well as a brief description of them.  I am in no way an authority or expert on this subject, so please forgive me if I don't always have the corrrect information.  I began collecting bottles many years ago, and I appreciate the art and the design as well as the history found in and on each of them.
