Here are some of my Kansas City crown tops. Not all of them are new, I've had the Leo Thoma for several years, but the others are all new during this year.

This is a Kansas City Food Products soda bottle. If memory serves correctly, a daughter of one of the Heim's of the Heim brewery married into the family of the owners of this company. This bottle and a Kansas City Breweries bottle are strikingly similar.

This is a 1902 Kansas City straight sided Coca Cola bottle. Kansas City started bottling Coke in 1902. In the next picture you can see the ISGC on the bottom. Interstate Glass Company, Kansas City, Mo. In business from 1902 to 1903. Pretty easy to date this bottle.

Julip Carbonated Beverages. I need to do some more research on this company.

Serenader's Club. If you look closely you can see a herald trumpet with the SC. I need to learn more about this company as well.

K.C. Ola from the Eagle Bottling Works of Kansas City. Trying to compete with Coca Cola. Hand tooled lip on this one.

Another straight sided Coke. This one is from the Graham Glass Company and is machine made. I have seen another straight sided KC Coke so there is at least one more variety of this out there.

Opps, that last one is not the straight side Coke, it is from the Setzler Company. They started in the mid 1880's and lasted until the end of World War II.

Hopefully this is the straight sided Coke.
