Nice one Tim, I'd give it a good cleaning and leave as-is. Did this slider make the list of embossed sliders that was compiled a while back?

Believe Tim added to it...should be a total of 13?

Damn, incredible! How is it embossed? Are the individual letters embossed or the entire red circle? Just wondering. Either way, love it.

The entire circle is embossed, with the tru-ade being painted. In the slider section section of the 3rd edition of the soda machine book, he said they had to sand thru the paint to reveal the brand. Without knowing what it is, it's just an embossed circle similar to the burley's pond shape.

It also said that the tru-ade and the dads would be the rarest ones!

Very cool, nice pickup.  I wonder how TruAde actually tasted being non-carbonated, was it a cola?

From what I've heard, it was more like  Hi-C, or the orange drink McDonalds' had h so long ago. It wasn't a colam, they  had Orange, Cherry, Grape, etyc.

It is being bottled again, and found mostly in the South East - Caolinas, Florida...
