Grapette Syrup Container Kitten Bank
For a brief period, Grapette syrup was distributed in
containers shaped like kittens. The kitten containers were discontinued because the
automated filling machine required a container that was symmetrical in the horizontal
plane. Because the kitten containers were not symmetrical, they would often arrive under
the spout of the filling machine with the hole in the container off center with the
filling machine spout. The kittens were soon discontinued. They were replaced by the "slick-eared" elephant.
