Bedford Bottleworks

I like that red and yellow Royal Crown label; and while I prefer the taste of Coca-Cola, you have to admire that Pepsi logo. Before it closed down, the antique shop Treasures Thru Time in Bedford was always a guaranteed stop on visits to my mom’s hometown. At the top of the steps on the second floor, a vendor had shelves stocked with old bottles. There were a number of companies and varieties of pop, including Nehi, that were bottled in Bedford. Water from the Springs also enjoyed quite a market for a good number of years from which I have found several different sizes and designs of bottles.
