Thoses are different.  I actually saw the Mr. peanut scale for sale either on Ebay or the Chicagoland show about five years ago.  I remember it because the price was very high.  I don't remmeber how much though.  I personally like the old Watlings better.

I wonder if R.C. was going through a design change at the time.  I saw two versions of the pyramid bottles down south, but after that I just remember the red diamond on their bottles.

I don't think Borden's could get away with the homoginized abreviation these days.  Milk sales might go done. Oo

Glen,
I believe the collector in Arroyo Grande had all the soda scales as well. Do you recall?

I have seen the RC one on the left before. When I worked for Dr Pepper / 7UP the old bottler I worked for had one. Not sure what happened to it? Maybe it is still there! I better check it out!!!! Those are really neat.
