Found this 6oz. bottle by a water line dirt pile next to the sidewalk. I've walked by it for 3 days now, I figured its not worth anything being is sat there untouched. I know nothing about bottles, but I never seen a flat sided soda bottle before, so I picked it up and brought it home. Says patented November 27, 1923 on the bottom above the D. I think I'll just set it on my workbench.

We call those "Deco Sodas'. From the era before ACL (painted) bottles. Love finding them for all the varied shapes and designs. One could build a collection of them there are so many.
