The Wilson Family Coca Cola Collection
Lot 60:
Description
Early amber glass Coca-Cola bottle embossed with the classic Coca-Cola script and lower lettering for Lexington, Kentucky, along with ?Contents 8 FL. OZ.? indicating an early pre-contour era bottle. This example represents the transitional period of Coca-Cola bottling prior to the iconic hobble-skirt design, with a simple cylindrical form and applied lip. The rich amber coloration is less commonly encountered than standard aqua examples and offers strong display appeal. The glass exhibits typical early manufacturing characteristics including light bubbles and surface irregularities, along with honest age wear such as light scratches and interior residue. A desirable early Coca-Cola bottle from Lexington, Kentucky, representing the formative years of Coca-Cola bottling history.
