Paper label Cragmont Cola from Safeway. We sometimes shopped at Safeway in the 80s but I don't remember these. Anybody ever try this cola?

Most of my Godzilla/kaiju collection and some of my bottle collection (included because I had to back up to fit all the Godzilla toys)

I bought my 08 two years ago with about 140k on it. Since then it has been stored outside and I've put about 7k miles on it. Over the last year, I have noticed the rubber that insulates the plastic faring from the metal rear fender has been working its way out. Has this happened to anyone else?

Dr. M.M. Fenner's Capitol Bitters Fredonia, N.Y. Light blue, 10 1/2" by 3 1/2" by 2". Minor lip damage. I have found some information on these, but I was wondering about what looks like a manufacturing flaw down one side, where the edge of the bottle appears to bow slightly inwards.

Is this an unusual flaw, or did all Capitol Bitters bottles have it? I have also heard these described as 'hinge-mold' bottles; what would be the approximate date of this bottle? The company apparently dates to 1887.

Modern Japanese 'Hata' brand Codd soda bottle. Instead of having the glass bottle neck closed around the marble, the marble is now held in the plastic collar, and a small plastic post is included to pop the marble free. Interesting experience to drink from one for the first time.

Wonderfully-crude black glass bottle. Rough-feeling glass, bubbles, crudely-applied top. Had a sticker with '1860?' on it. English ale bottle, maybe? Also, is this a pontil mark?
