MY NO DEPOSIT NO RETURN COLLECTION

I started collecting what are known as Deco bottles which were very common during the 1920's after the introduction of the classic Coca-Cola bottle in 1915. This eventually led to my discovering the embossed No Deposit No Return bottles which started being used by bottling companies as early as the late 1940's; however, they really wouldn't come into their own until the late 1960's.





6oz Pepsi-Cola ND/NR bottle from 1948. This is the earliest no deposit bottle I own.



10oz Pepsi-Cola ND/NR bottles tall and squat.
