Description: Free USA & Canada Tracked shipping for this nice antique Waterloo, Quebec crown top purple soda bottle. This quart size bottle measures approximately 11½ inches high by 3½ inches in diameter, the glass is in nice shiny condition with no chips or cracks but it does show some very slight surface scratches and one bruise on the base. It is embossed on the front 'Crystal Spring Bottling Works / NOXIE KOLA Regd / Trade monogram Mark / F.B.Perkins / Waterloo, Que.'. The name Noxie wasn't used very long as the American Company MOXIE put an end to it. It has been irradiated to give it its beautiful deep purple color (an artificial process that turns antique clear glass in a beautiful deep amethyst/purple colored glass, it is about the equivalent of decades of glass overexposure to the ultra violet rays of the sun; the manganese which is one of the key ingredients that they used to take to get clear glass prior to 1910 reacts and becomes dark amethyst/purple in color, actually very few bottles have manganese in them and most are over 100 years old. Please take note that the color is not flashed on the glass nor applied, it is derived from the natural chemicals in the glass.). For those who are wondering what BIMAL means, it stands for “Blown in the mold applied lip”, this term is also referred as “tooled lip”. Don't miss this rare one!
