just had to put my two cents in here....the unattributed Royal Crown label is
much earlier than the Union Bottling Works label. I saw a stack of 50 or so
flooding the market at same time as the Dr. Pepper label from the 1920s.
I bought a bunch for $1 a piece. Any collector from my day questioned them
too..with bottle collecting reaching its apex, why sell so cheap?
I did have a Union bottle from Columbus and the so called RC label just
looked wrong on it. The printing style was more consistent with late 1800s
style labels.
