Original vintage 1952 Sun Crest Cream Soda bottle from the NuGrape Bottling Co., Elkhart, Indiana.
This is an especially nice survivor because the bottle appears to remain factory sealed with its original contents and original Sun Crest Cream Soda crown cap.
Features include:
Dated 1952 based on the embossed base code
Sun Crest blue and white ACL painted front label
Original Sun Crest Cream Soda crown cap
Approximately 7 fl. oz.
Embossed textured / honeycomb-style glass bottle
Back marked “Property of NuGrape Bottling Co. Elkhart, Ind.”
Crown Cork & Seal Co. bottle markings on base
Original soda contents remain inside
Original sealed cap appears undisturbed
Condition is very good for a roughly 74-year-old soda bottle. The painted graphics remain bright and highly readable. The crown cap shows expected age, surface wear and discoloration. Original contents have naturally darkened/settled with age. Bottle shows normal vintage storage wear. Please review all photos closely for exact condition.
A great piece of Indiana bottling history, Sun Crest advertising, NuGrape memorabilia, or vintage soda bottle collecting.
Sold strictly as a vintage collectible/display item.
