Some antique stores may be interested, but like everything else, for a while bottles will sell really well, then for a while they won’t. Depends on what part of the cycle we are in right now. I think things are looking up as the comments on my bottles have picked up a lot the last few weeks. You could try eBay, if you don’t mind packing them for shipping, that’s how you’ll get the most money for them. A dealer has to buy with the idea of making a profit, so they can’t pay as much. The dealer can be a faster way to unload all of them, or you can sell for more on eBay. I’d love to see and post the pictures here if you have some.

Just found about 15 beverage ACL bottles in an upper room of an old barn on our property. Sun-Ripe is one of the brands. Where do I go to sell these? Is Ebay the best way or would antique shop owners be interested too? In Central Pa we have a lot of these. Leslie

Good luck Gus. Let me know if they do anything more than $5 each.

I have over 25 Sun rise bottles.
Mine have the “Buy with confidence” Drink with Pleasure in circles.

The mountains on the front are all white, but all lettering is red.

Looking to sell them, probably on Ebay.

Well, I’d love to see a picture. My guess is it’s from the 1940s but that’s a pretty uneducated guess.
