Vintage Coca-Cola and Diet Coke Georgia Green Glass Bottles

This pair of vintage glass soda bottles includes one classic Coca-Cola bottle and one Diet Coke bottle, both crafted in the iconic 'Georgia Green' tinted glass and featuring the distinct contour (hobbleskirt) shape. Each 6.5 fl. oz. bottle is constructed from heavy-gauge glass with an applied color label (ACL) in white and red. The primary Coca-Cola bottle features the script logo and the text 'return for refund' in white font. The Diet Coke bottle features the 'Diet Coke' logo and the smaller red 'Diet Coca-Cola' script. These bottles represent a style popularized in the late 20th century, specifically the 1980s or 1990s, when returnable glass was still common. The glass shows characteristic seam lines from the manufacturing mold process. In terms of condition, the glass appears structurally sound with no major cracks or large chips visible in the photo, though there is general surface wear and some light clouding or mineral buildup on the interior and exterior consistent with age and use. The painted labels show minor evidence of fading or scratching but remain largely legible. The presence of 'return for refund' text indicates they were part of a deposit system, common for commercial glass of that era.
