NuGrape was invented in 1906 and first bottled in 1921; licensing moved to Olla Bottling Works in Louisiana in 1922 before Monarch Beverage Company (then Moxie-Monarch-NuGrape) acquired the brand in 1968. National NuGrape Company's Atlanta headquarters, built in 1937, also produced Sun Crest and Kickapoo Joy Juice before the building was sold in 1971. This bottle uses Applied Color Label (ACL) pyroglaze, the technique that replaced embossed slug-plate lettering starting in the 1930s.
Pairs nicely with our other vintage soda bottles, like our Carousel Pop Shoppe, Chero-Cola, and Frostie Root Beer bottles, for a collector's lineup.
