On May 8, 1886, a pharmacist named Dr. John Pemberton
carried a jug of Coca-Cola syrup to Jacobs’ Pharmacy in downtown Atlanta, where
it was mixed with carbonated water and sold for five cents a glass. From humble beginnings 125 years ago, Coca
Cola has evolved from one product to more than 500 brands in 2012.
Today, millions of Filipinos enjoy Coca Cola beverages.
This year 2012 we are celebrating Coca Cola’s 100 years in
the Philippines. Coca-Cola’s history in
the Philippines is intertwined with the country’s own. Throughout the years, Coca
Cola have become so much a part of everyday Philippine life through a shared
heritage.
The 1st Coca Cola was sold in 1912 in CLARKES Soda fountain
in Escolta. From then on, Coca-Cola Company
and its bottlers have issued a phenomenal amount of colorful, fanciful and
beautiful bottles and promotional items that captured the cultural spirit and
artistic trends of their times. The wonderful
world of Coca-Cola bottle collecting has captured the imagination of thousands
of people in the world including the Filipinos.
I am sharing with you some Coca Cola bottles that were
issued here in the Philippine.

DeleteI got a sealed Family-sized Coca -Cola with a cockroach inside it. The insect is somewhat disintegrating though its form and shape are completely visible maybe because it's vacuum. I bought this thing decades ago from a minimart. It was to be opened when i noticed a shining object floating inside. I kept it as a memento together with my other childhood collections.Just sharing. :)
