Found this old bottle in an old barn . Says it's a Coca-Cola product bottled in the local area. Can't find any information on it. My Mom is in her mid 70's and said she never saw it growing up. Any clue to what drink this was or when it was made ? It almost seems like a spoof from some twilight zone episode , some generic drink to go with your govt. issue protein bar .

Did you ever see White Coca-Cola?

It was made for a Russian leader back in the late 40"s after ww2.

I think it's from back in the 30's or 40's.

Most painted labels bottles are from the late 1930 on.

A lot of times there is a date on the bottom. Sometimes just the year, sometimes month and year.

It was probably a flavor bottle used by the local bottler, usually orange or grape sometimes ginger ale. That’s what they were used for around here before coke had the Fanta line. The painted label or acl was used on coke bottles starting in the 50’s I think. There was a quality beverage company out of Charlotte that produced orange, grape and such but they’ve gone out of business or bought out more than likely
