Yes William...as Dan's link indicates...you should check out Bill
Lockhart's website...Chapt. 6....and also ask Bill directly. But I bet he
will reply to you when he sees your post....since he is a regular on
HISTARCH. Apparently Crystal Beverage Co. made it...or at least
distributed it...
http://alamo.nmsu.edu/~lockhart/AlamoSod/Chap6/chap6.htm
But then...Cascade Ginger Ale co. is listed on this website...
http://www.geocities.com/themonk1959/jaxcomps.htm dating from
1932-33 But it too has ads from Cascade Bottling Co....of Jacksonville,
FL ...as shown on the cweide link Dan sent you. Scroll down to almost the
bottom ..and click on image of Ad...(not the text link).
More text on the company: http://home.alltel.net/cweide/textfiles/C.TXT
You might want to email the website [log in to unmask]
But....here's another website with only a text description of a poster for
the beverage...describing it as: "Unusual circa 1920's cardboard hanging
sign. 10"x14" for Cascade Ginger Ale." So that date is considerably
earlier....but...perhaps this person isnt sure of the date...hence the "circa."

Then...there's this website... http://www.collectiblesrus.com/soda/soda.html
with a carrier (box?) for Cascade Ginger Ale...dating to the
"1920s." Unfortunately there is no image on this site either.
The green one's Dan mentioned are for sale on ebay....does yours look like
this...only
clear?

Guess that's all....but ask Bill...
