Brent,
   I mentioned being able to take bottles directly to the Coke plant and having them refill glass bottles.  Is there such a plant anywhere near the Austin, TX area?  Just curious as I would probably save mine up and make a trip to get them filled that way if I could.  Thanks.

No Coke plant near you Ken, but you do have Dublin Dr. Pepper.

Thanks.  I meant to say "you mentioned" not "I mentioned".  Anyway, if I liked Dr. Pepper, that would be cool, but alas I do not.  Oh well.

I have quite a few Dr Pepper bottles. The Dr Pepper ones you have are 50s. Just after the Good for Life bottles embossed Good for Life are 30s debossed 40s, then yours.

Looks like you have a Coke carrier from Oklahoma?, those Coke bottles look to be different eras 40s-60s
the DP bottles are from 50s the rootbeer 50s-60s? the embossed and debossed should clean up nice but
the Masons have seen better days.

I thought it unusual that the Mason's were both worn the same way until I looked at how they sat in the case.  The bottle rubs right there in the case, I suppose because it is the highest point on the label, so it rubs it off.  Just my assessment.  So, there really aren't any bottles considered the "holy grail" or anything like that then?  This guy has a ton of bottles of various makes and years.  I found an embossed Coke with Las Vegas, NV on the bottom that I thought was pretty cool.

So question for you guys...if you could find a particular Coke sign or Coke tray, etc...which would it be that would make your day?  Can you post a pic of one?
