Description
A giant replica of a family-size Vess Soda Bottle was erected at Hampton Av. and Gravois Blvd. in South St. Louis. It was constructed by Treesh Neon Sign Company, East St. Louis, Illinois for the Vess Bottling Company of St. Louis. The bottle revolves on a steel pole. In 1953, it was believed to be the largest, revolving, lighted bottle in the world. At night it was lit by more than 600 lineal feet of neon tubing.
In 1989, after the bottle had been found in storage, it was re-erected at 520 O´Fallon north of the Arch
