Jim Do you know some history about various local bottles? I've found lots of interesting stuff on my land, from arrowheads, through salt-glazed shards, to 30's patterns, to several bottles. Know anything about this one? It is very heavy glass (14 oz. on my kitchen scale). Info is painted on the glass. Label is partly obliterated but says: "Drink to ........hear......." ZIMBA Kola Drink First for Thirst On the back it says: contains carbonated water, pure cane sugar, extract of kola nuts, pure fruit, essential oils and acidulent, caramel color added. Bottled by Associated Distributors, Inc. Sanford, NC (no zip code) contents 7 fl oz. Yum.... bet you get a cocaine buzz from that one!!! ha ha Kira

Martin Thanks. Not too much info, though. But interesting they say Zimba was produced 1941-47. However, they list some beverages that are still being produced as ending in the '50's, '60's. So how reliable is that? Anyway, I was "there" when zipcodes came into being. I'd mentioned no zip code as a way of noting this bottle was, indeed, old. I wonder if one can still get Davino wines (super sweet, hand-blown bottles, from Denmark... strawberry, raspberry, cherry, and it swirled with sweetness. No two bottles were quite the same color or shape. Got it in Buffalo late '50's.) Also, Sanson Malaga from Spain. Yum. Think I'll do a search on those. Kira
