Antique 1940 Coca-Cola contour bottle bottled for the Waycross, Georgia territory, made by Laurens Glass Works with the D-105529 patent marking.
Professionally packed for fragile shipment. Ships next business day. Full refund if damaged in transit.
This is the classic embossed hobbleskirt (contour) Coca-Cola bottle in aqua / Coca-Cola green glass, marked "Coca-Cola / Trade Mark Registered / Bottle Pat. D-105529." The base is prominently embossed WAYCROSS GA, which makes it a strong piece for collectors of Georgia Coca-Cola bottles and Southern town-name soda bottles. The heel carries the Laurens Glass Works "L" maker's mark and the 1940 date code.
The D-105529 contour design relates to Coca-Cola's renewed 1937 bottle patent. Waycross Coca-Cola was founded in 1905, with L.B. Harrell becoming sole owner in 1920, and it remained an important regional bottler for decades.
Condition: intact with no chips or cracks observed. There is authentic surface scratching and case wear from original commercial use, mainly across portions of the body panels. Embossing, including the WAYCROSS GA base lettering, is strong. Please review all 20 photographs; they are part of the condition description.
