Title: Cadillac Beverage Company Ginger Ale
Post by: ZedHed on December 13, 2009, 08:22:20 PM
Hello

I came across an old bottle that reads Cadillac Beverage Company Ginger Ale Detroit Mi. I live in Michigan but I am unable to find anything about the company or bottle.

its a very cool looking bottle with the classic Cadillac symbol on the bottle face and on the bottom

anything you could tell me would be appreciated

Thank You

Found a green wooden 'Cadillac beverage' box/crate from Lima, OH on the Internet.  If this business in Lima is connected to your bottle, I suspect it was a local small operation.  Quite a different bottle and to a bottle collector, probably a prized item.  At one time there were thousands of small soda operations but an embossed bottle or specially made bottle seems rare to me. ???

thank you

this bottle is frustrating me i have lots of old soda bottles from Michigan and I am usually able to find them.

the bottle says Detroit but the operation could have also been in Lima I might take it to a local collector today but any more help would be great

In original condition. this bottle was issued with a painted enamel logo. I would suggest $ 8.00 to $ 10.00 Dollars.
