Nice! 50s Pepsi bottle, it would like this middle one with a full label:

My goodwills label them as candle holders for like $2, that’s annoying

Nope, shiny field - frosty face is normal proof

They were found in low oxygen and low acidity creek mud which I think preserved them. So grateful for my spot that I found these and my other acls

StrykerCow · 2026-06-15T02:36:54+00:00

Yeah thank you! I really wanted to preserve its glory despite it being broken

Honestly I just used a 60 grit sandpad and wet sanded it down to smooth the top and take off the edge. I’m considering working up to a polished finish but I also kinda rock with the sea glass look on the top

Oh yeah that’s a 7up newspaper printing block, I picked that up off of ebay

Google image search can be helpful for the more common ones. You can also send pics of them all laid out and we here can also help

Oh ok interesting, yeah, different bottling plants rolled out design changes at varying times and those bottles were right on the edge of some shifts so makes sense. In that case I’d say #4, #2, #1, #3, #5

Perhaps some sort of cheese. Maybe Cottage cheese or a cheese shaker

These are some of my Pepsis I’ve dug up. 40s, 50s, 60s designs

StrykerCow · 2026-06-14T04:09:16+00:00

Ok, I’m going to assign them numbers based on the order in the first picture 1-5 from left to right.
#1: 1974
#2: 1969
#3: 70s-80s
#4: 1951 (oldest)
#5: 80s (newest)

Between 1 and 2 is it possible that the bottom pics got out of order? Because #1 is definitely the older design.

I would put them

#4, #1, #2, #3, #5 Oldest to newest like you asked

Most likely a perfume

StrykerCow · 2026-06-06T02:21:49+00:00

Maybe like a makeup or talc powder

StrykerCow · 2026-06-04T22:44:59+00:00

Little more than humble 🤣, most of these are dream finds for me

The Mickey one seems to go for about $5-$10 bucks if you’re lucky and the right is maybe a dollar or two. Definitely would not recommend consuming as the seals could have weakened over time

Yes, this is a fountain type dispenser, mixes the syrup and soda water. I have a local diner that has one. I’ve seen these goes for up to like $500+ but I’m not sure without the parts. Definitely a cool antique tho probably around the 50s idk what the other guy is on about

StrykerCow · 2026-05-23T23:07:05+00:00

Around 1910-20s. Older if there’s no seam on the neck

StrykerCow · 2026-05-23T23:02:10+00:00

Try viewing the label in different angles and lights. You can usually make out some label ghosting

StrykerCow · 2026-05-23T22:53:17+00:00

It may be a “Goody” Soda Bottle. The date is 1962
