Darling son bought at a garage sale - hopefully he is not planning on using it for his rum!! LOL

You can still buy Coke in glass bottles.When I drink it,I buy in glass.Seems to taste better but that could be my taste buds playing tricks.

I didn't know that - all I know is they would have been b****y heavy to carry home in a shopping bag ! LOL I thought the plastic one's were quite weighty till I hefted this thing.

how much did your son pay, greencat? collectors prefer them unopened - older the better

what era is it from you reckon, i'm guessing 70s

i have a smaller opened one without the white paint - older *goes to find it

No, the one cat pictured has a different cap. It looks older.

Nice one, joz.  But the real collector's items are the ones

with a slightly green coloured glass. 

I'm with spot about the taste in glass bottles - much better

Will not buy it in plastic.

Also good if they are fluid ounces, not litres or mls

it says 6 FL OZS on the bottle

yep and i read somewhere original coke actually had coke in them

Coles are selling the big glass bottles of Coke for $4.

I like the glass bottles too regarding taste. Coke in plastic bottles is horrid, sometimes cans are okay, seems to vary with the batches.

Coke must be ice cold, I stick it in the freezer for an hour first.
