Please take the time to read through my entire item description and view all the photographs.  I consistently prepare accurate and detailed descriptions and provide clear close up photographs and video when appropriate for all my listings.  The aforementioned notwithstanding, note the photos are still the biggest and most important part of this or any description.  As the old saying goes, "a picture is worth a thousand words".  If you would like additional photos or have specific questions just message me and I will respond ASAP.

For your consideration is this 49 year-old, vintage 1977 full never opened COCA-COLA 75 year anniversary commemorative RETRO-STYLE embossed and silkscreened clear glass 10 fluid ounce bottle.  Note; I chose to be conservative and listed this bottle as being “used” only because it is 49 years old.  In actuality, the bottle has NEVER BEEN OPENED and could be considered new old stock.  For many years, I collected Coca- Cola bottles and memorabilia but have recently begun downsizing my collections and decided to list several collectible bottles for someone else to add to their collection and enjoy.

ATTENTION

Please note; due to the age of this bottle of soda, I do not recommend consuming the contents as I cannot attest to its flavor and/or whether or not it is palatable.  To that end, this bottle is being offered for collectible and/or display purposes only.

The unopened bottle is full with 10 fluid ounces of Coca-Cola soda and is made of the heavy clear glass weighing approximately 1.0 pound 4.50 ounces by itself.  The bottle stands approximately 7.75” tall and has a base that is approximately 2-5/16” in diameter.  Refer to description photos #13, #14, #15 and #16 to confirm the weight and size dimensions and for more details about what I have described.

One side of the bottle boldly features a diamond shaped nostalgic retro style multicolored silk screened Coca-Cola brand label reminiscent of the period.  The center of the label displays the iconic RED script “COCA-COLA” brand name along with the words “Trade Mark ®” beneath it.  The outer border of the noted retro style label reads as follows below.  Refer to description photos #1 and #8 for more details about what I have described. 

“BOTTLED UNDER AUTHORITY OF THE COCA-COLA CO. ATLANTA, GA. COMMEMORATIVE BOTTLE” 

The opposite side of the bottle displays another beautifully silk screened commemorative logo featuring a large number “75” in the center referencing the 75^th year anniversary of the company.  This label reads as follows below.  Refer to description photos #2 and #10 for more details about what I have described. 

“1902 - 75 YEARS OF BOTTLED REFRESHMENT – 1977” 

“75^TH ANNIVERSARY” 

“HOUSTON COCA-COLA BOTTLING COMPANY” 

The top of the bottle remains factory sealed with the original metal crown and cork cap as depicted in photos #1, #2, #3, #4 and #5.  The neck of the bottle is embossed with the iconic script brand name “COCA-COLA” and the words “TRADE MARK REGISTERED” as can be confirmed in description photos #1, #2, #3, #4, #11 and #12.  The bottom of the bottle is also embossed with (5) five lines of product information that appears to read as follows below.  Refer to description photos #6 and #7 for more details about what I have described.

Also silk screened on the front side of the bottle, located to the lower LEFT of the aforementioned diamond shaped retro product label, appears the following information “10 FL. OZ.” which denotes the content weight of the Coca-Cola product inside the bottle.  The reverse side of the bottle below the commemorative brand are the words “NO DEPOSIT NO REFILL” as can be confirmed in description photos #2 and #10.  Refer to all the description photos for more details about what I have described.

Overall, this unopened and FULL vintage commemorative collectible bottle of Coca-Cola remains in excellent condition.  The glass is smooth and damage free with no scratches or cloudiness.  The silkscreen labeling remains in excellent condition showing no surface wear and the graphics are clear, crisp and completely legible as can be confirmed in the description photos.  This bottle was produced to celebrate and commemorate the 75^th year of the Coca-Cola Bottling Company 1902-1977 existence.  If you collect Coca-Cola bottles and/or memorabilia this collectible 49 year old commemorative bottle would be welcome addition to your collection and/or display.
