Most of my bottles are in totes so I don’t have pics of them but you might want to check and see if you have this bottle in your collection. I think they said only 10 known to exist 🙂. https://www.auctionzip.com/auction-lot/__D6D4E228E5

I don't collect soda bottles, but ... Back in the late 1950s and 1960s, my Mom worked for Blanke Baer Fruits & Flavors. Part of their business was making flavors for ice cream and soda to sell wholesale to dairies and bottlers. Their Jic-Jac brand could be used by their bottler customers who bought the flavoring and branding package. Jim "Oldgas" Potts Your host and moderator 2 members like this: dodgeman60, hawkike
