Mission Cone tops Question.

Post by Leon »

I know the Mission Flat tops all seem pretty easy to Aquire but what about the Cone tops. How often do you see these? Are these tough in cone tops? LEON.

Someone in Canada has found quite a few orange and ginger ale in offgrade condition and sells them on eBay from time to time. Still a difficult cans to find offgrade but almost impossible on grade.

To the best of my knowledge the only other flavor know is Cola and that is impossible to find in any condition. One ongrade example sold on eBay several years ago for big money. Don't remember how much but well into the thousands.

Lance,

Any idea if there are more than one example of the Orange & G.A. in on-grade?

I've seen a couple of Oranges in grade 2, but I've yet to see at G.A. much better than in Leon's pic.

I think it might have been the same bottle collector in Canada that found all the Lucky Strikes that found these dumpers.

Brent,

I am unaware of any ongrade Orange or Ginger Ales, the one I sold a few months ago was the best Orange I have seen (pictured on my website).

Yes it is the same person that found all the Lucky Strikes.

Looking back through some pics of some old soda cone collections, I'm lead to believe that there are at least 2 of the Colas in ongrade. No pics of any on-grade Orange & G.A. in the group. There are two large soda cone collections in the N.E. that I haven't seen though.
