Buffalo Rock
Company Names, addresses, dates:
Buffalo Rock, Washington DC
Notes:
Buffalo Rock doesn't show up in any Washington DC city directories. From the markings on
the bottle below, it would appear they were based in Birmingham Alabama, and had some type
of bottling operation in Washington DC.
The Buffalo Rock company is still in business today and claims to be the
largest single-family privately owned Pepsi-Cola bottler. The bottle below may
have held their Ginger Ale, which was their big seller in the 1920s. 1
