  Undrar varför CocaCola äger varumärket Supa. Är det för att de gör världens bästa groggvirke kanske? :)

  Hehehe…

  Föresten, kom på en rolig siffra när Coca skryter om hur många anställda dom har, dvs 25000. I min hemsitad i Polen startades ett lastbilsföretag efter andra världskriget. Under många år hade man upp till 25000 anställda på själva fabriken. Lastbilarna producerades mest för nationellt bruk (tex för att köra över demonstranterna) men även för öst-staterna. Idag är företaget uppköpt att ett tyskt bilmärke och har 350 anställda. Kommer ut en bil per år typ…

  Coca Cola och/eller Haddon Sundblom har inte ritat tomten. Läs mer här: http://www.snopes.com/cokelore/santa.asp

• http://knarka.com/ Mickey J Barczyk

  Ritat har han ;-) dock ej upfunnit som jag ovan skrivit. Eftersom han satte de sista detaljerna på tomten tycker jag ändå att man kan ge honom credit för dagens tomte.

  Hello,

  I thought you should know that Alexander Samuelsson did not design or invent the famous contour Coca-Cola bottle. Yes, his name was on the patent, naming him as the inventor. But if you knew how the glass company dealt with patents, you would know that they never put the actual designer’s name on the patent. In the case of the Root Glass Company, Chapman J. Root, in almost every case, put his son’s name on the companies bottle patents. Don’t feel bad, even the Coca-Cola Company has errored in this regard (exept for about three Coca-Cola sites who did their research – see links below)

  When my grandfather made a small modification to the bottle in 1923, Chapman J. Root put his name on the patent. Why he did this…no one is sure. Ironically, out of the four people who were part of the bottle project, Samuelsson had the least to do with the invention of the contour bottle. It should be noted that Samuelsson was not hired on as a bottle designer. He was the plant superintendent. Chapman’s decision to put Samuelsson’s name on the patent has caused the true designer, Earl R. Dean, to not get the recognition he deserved. Rumor has it that Samuelson was never even a glass-blower, but a blacksmith.

  Sites that credit Earl R. Dean as the designer of the contour bottle, three of them are official Coca-Cola sites:

  In about 8 years, it will be the 100th aniversary of the contour bottle. My objective is to return the credit back to Earl R. Dean by 30-June-2015.

  If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to contact me.

  Best regards,

  Jeff Dean
  Grandson of Earl R. Dean

  “Rumor has it that Samuelson was never even a glass-blower, but a blacksmith.”

  If you want ot go on a crusade about accuracy and merit, you need to be more stringent that your counterpart, and don’t base your arguments on rumours. It hurts your case. Alexander Samuelsson (sic; he and his brother “americanized” the spelling after arrival in US) was a glasblower trained at Surte Glasbruk.

• http://www.myspace.com/the_contour_bottle Jeff

  I really don’t care what Samuelsson was! I used the word “rumor” because I won’t make a matter-of-fact statement about someone if I can’t back it up.

  Whether he was a glass blower or not makes no difference at all in this argument since the contour bottle was never blown…the glass was injected into a mold which Earl R. Dean built. The one thing I do know, and this is a fact that I can back up…Samuelsson did not design the contour Coca-Cola Bottle.

  Samuelsson has been getting credit for the bottle solely because his name was on the patent. FACT: Back then, the name of the actual inventor was often NOT put on the patents.

  This is a quote from a US patent expert,

  “I don’t doubt that Earl R. Dean was responsible for the design work. I’ve seen this again and again where designers were not given the credit they deserve. The United States Patent and Trademark Office has since changed their requirements for application. They now require patent submissions include all individuals who took part in the design process. If submissions neglect to include the names of others who worked on the invention, the entire patent is at risk of being invalidated.”

  Thank you,

  Jeff

  Tss, who cares what happend a 100 years ago?

  If I create a new product and most of the work is designed by one or two of my employes it still will be my idea and my name will end up on the patent papers. I´m the boss, I decide :-)

  Samuelsson was the superintendent (boss) and I´m sure he was leading this work to create a new bottle for the competition from Coca-cola. Even if he did not design the actual award-winning bottle, he was kind of a project manager.

  I´m sure you have more fact than me and I wish you good luck to return the credit for your relative.

  Best regards / Peter Samuelsson

  Hi Peter,

  Actually, Samuelsson was the plant superintendent. According to my grandfather, Samuelsson played no role in the design of the bottle. All though, he was present when Chapman J. Root was discussing the letter sent by the Coca-Cola Company asking for bottle companies to design a distinctive bottle. Samuelsson did make one comment, “What is Coca-Cola made of?” …and that would be the last of Samuelsson’s participation in the bottle creation. He was not Earl R. Deans boss. Dean took all directives from Chapman J. Root. Again, the only reason Samuelsson has been given credit, or partial credit, is because, for some unknown reason, Chapman decided to put Samuelsson’s name on the patent. Matter of fact, when Dean did a small modification on the bottle in 1923, Chapman put his name on the patent.

  So Peter, I have to ask…are you related to Alexander Samuelsson?

  Best Regards,

  Jeff

• http://www.uniprint.se Peter

  Hi Jeff!

  Thank´s for the info, you seem to know alot in this subject.

  No, I don´t think I´m related. Samuelsson is a very common name in Sweden and in the old days it was usual that sons took their fathers name as last name. Samuels son became Samuelsson and Svens son became Svensson and so on.

  Take Care!

• Jeff

  I guess that would be because my father and I grew up believing that my Grandfather, was the designer of the contour Coca-Cola bottle…only to learn later that another man has been getting the credit.

  That is very interesting about sir names and how last names came about back then. That is something I never knew.

  Tråkigt att du inte har korrekt fakta när du skriver….

  Coca-cola flaskan uppfanns INTE av Axelander Samuelsson. Det är INTE en svensk design.
  Axlexander var endast platschef för det glasbruk (Root Glas Co.)som vann tävlingen om hur den nya flaskan skulle se ut.Som platschef var det han som skrev under patentansökningarna. Det finns INGA bevis som säger att någon svensk uppfann flaskan.

• http://myspace.com/the_contour_bottle Jeff

  I have all the evidence that I need. Why would I, the grandson of Earl R. Dean, be in possession of the actual pencil sketch of the bottle before the first bottles were produced. Also the company that would know the truth would be the Root Glass Company, correct? Well, here is a website which belongs to the Root Family. On this site you will read that the actual designer was Earl R. Dean. Why would the Root Glass company have the wrong facts?
  http://www.rockyedge.com/chaphist.html

  Again, Samuelson was the man sent to file for the 1915 patent. That is why you will find his name on it. My grandfather, Earl R. Dean, made a small modification to the bottle in 1923. If you look at the 1923 patent, you will see Chapman J. Root’s name as inventor. This is proof that back then the patent laws were lax. I’ve contacted the USTPO and they agree that it was typical back in the early 1900′s for the names of people other than that actual inventor to be recorded on a patent.

• http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coca-Cola#Bottle_and_logo_design Jeff

  På svenska:

  Jag har alla bevis som jag behöver. Varför skulle jag, om barnbarn av Earl R. Dean, vara i besittning av de faktiska penna skiss av flaskan innan den första flaskor har producerats. Också det företag som skulle veta sanningen skulle vara Root Glass Company, korrekt? Tja, här är en webbplats som tillhör Root Familj. På denna webbplats kommer du att läsa att den faktiska designer var Earl R. Dean. Varför skulle de Root Glass företaget har fel fakta?

  http://www.rockyedge.com/chaphist.html

  Igen, Samuelson var mannen skickas till filen för 1915 patent. Det är därför du hittar hans namn på den. Min farfar, Earl R. Dean, gjort en liten ändring till flaskan 1923. Om man tittar på 1923 patent, kommer du att se Chapman J. Root namn som uppfinnare. Detta är ett bevis på att då patentlagarna var slappa. Jag har kontaktat USTPO och de är överens om att det var typiskt tillbaka i början av 1900-talet för namnen på andra personer än de faktiska uppfinnare som ska spelas in på ett patent.
