Until 1938 J. Louis Comiskey ran a small soda bottling company that bottled orange soda that was sold at White Sox park. The Comiskey family used the funds derived from their small soda bottling business to help finance the team during the Depression years. This bottle made of thick heavy glass measures approximately 7 1/2" high and dates to 1932. It is in outstanding condition with no visible chipping or cracks. The entire bottle has a hazy sort of film on the inside and could stand for a cleaning but is otherwise an outstanding memento from the old White Sox park.
