I have a 32 oz. glass Coca Cola from the mid 1970’s that is still sealed, It has a red and a green whistle in it.

Do we know which bottles were hand blown and when they started pressing them? Do the empty 1800’s have the aqua tinge to them? Wanted to know if my whimsy cane came from coke bottle factory, the glass is coke bottle colored, maybe made from end of day coke bottle glass..thx for your help

Being a baby boomer I can guarantee that we all have coca-cola and those bottles in our past. It was a staple, a gift, a reward. It was part of our lives.

Holy crap! The 1899 bottle looks more like a glass flask!

Wow – it is so neat to see all the bottles over the years lined up next to each other.

I love the shape of the 1899 but not the cork.
It looks very sleek and modern

The 1915 bottle is a pretty good representation of what you will look like if you drink lots of coke.

When I was a kid in 1974 there was an old store next to the theater that had a bottle shaped like the fourth one with the same type cap but it was about 14 inches high and maybe 6 inches in diameter never saw another one like it

In Costa Rica, Coke can be found in glass bottles made with real sugar. It’s delicious and refreshing!

Where are the green bottles and the brown bottles?
I have one like the 1900 with the paper label and its dark brown.

The funny part is that for the 3d one from the left (1915), the Raymond Loewy based the shape of the bottle on a COCOA fruit (chocolate) instead of a COCA (Coca Cola ; – ). It was on the same page of the encyclopaedia he used to do his research
