This bottle is part of my dearly departed mother’s vast collection of Coca-Cola memorabilia. Since I’m an only child and I don’t have any children of my own, I feel I must reluctantly let go of most of the collection. I’m over 60 now and I feel like it should be with people who will have time to enjoy it rather than collecting dust at my home or being stored. Vintage Coca-Cola 75th Anniversary commemorative bottle. This specific bottle design, featuring a reproduction of the 1899 straight-sided style, was issued by various independent bottlers to mark the 75th anniversary of the first Coca-Cola bottling in 1899.
