In my life I have had differents collections, for example: stamps, box of cigarrettes and antique coins. But in this moment only have a collection glass bottles of Coca Cola. The famous bottle of Coca Cola named "Contour".
The "Contour" is the typical and characteristic bottle since 1915. This bottle have 30 years less than de Coca Cola trademark. The form of this bottle is inspirated by the seed of Cacao (no of seed of Cola). Although is not a ingredient of Coke (as they say in USA). Maybe is a ingredient of the "Merchandising 7X" as it's called the secret component.
My collection only have 14 bottles. All Chileans an originals (not replicas). I purchased mainly in the "Persa Bío Bío". If you are somewhere around the world and enjoy a Coke, don't throw away the bottle, better bring it to Chile and give it to me. I will have deep gratitude for this.
All collector try of protect a piece of the history. Although my collection is a few commercial, I think this type of bottle will be for many years more, and your nostalgic value will increase.

There are some small mistakes I will indicate right away .You should write "....30 years less than the Coca Cola trademark...","I have purchased them mainly at Persa Bío-Bío.","All collectors try to protect...","its nostalgic value will increase".
On the other hand I can tell you the day before yesterday I went to the Persa and I'm not so sure but in the San Isidro-Placer area I saw a stall full of Coca-Cola antiques.They even had glasses,posters,Christmas decorations,and so forth....
There's another place where you may find some of those bottles.If you ever travel to La Serena,go to "Belle Epoque" a store that's in Cordovez St.next to the Square of Arms.It's in the downtown and everybody knows that street.(The guy who runs the store is a bit weird as he only opens from three to five pm right after taking his nap).
Finally I can tell that "Time in a bottle" is one of my favorite "oldie tunes",so when I saw the photograph that you included in your post,it came straight away to my mind.
Your teacher.
