Vintage Pepsi Wooden Bottle Crate – Yellow & Blue Advertising
Date: Circa 1940s–1950s
Origin: United States (regional Pepsi bottling plant)
Material: Solid wood with galvanized metal corner brackets
Description
Original wooden Pepsi bottle crate with yellow painted exterior and bold blue “PEPSI” block lettering. Constructed of solid wood with metal corner reinforcements and routed side handles.
This style of crate was used by independent regional Pepsi bottlers across the United States to transport and collect returnable glass soda bottles. Wood crates like this were standard until plastic delivery cases replaced them in the late 1950s and early 1960s.
Based on construction style, paint layering, typography, and hardware, this example dates to approximately the late 1940s to early 1950s.
Original Use
Used for delivery and retrieval of returnable glass Pepsi bottles from grocery stores and soda fountains. Marked for brand visibility during transport and stacking.
