BankAmericard Celebrates First Birthday BankAmericard of Georgia celebrated a birthday June 1, and Henry L. Asbury, Executive Vice President of the Mclntosh State Bank which offers the Bank- Americard service in Jackson, said the card has enjoyed a highly successful first year of opera tion. Sales in the initial twelve month period have exceeded $48,- 766,000 statewide. Mr. Asbury explained that when BankAmericard of Georgia was announced in March 1968 it anticipated a goal of 300,000 cardholders, 3,500 merchant ac counts and 20 correspondent agent banks to establish the sys tem in other Georgia cities within a year. These objectives were surpassed in six months because of the im mediate and widespread popu larity of BankAmericard after card usage began June 1968. To day there are more than 800,000 BankAmericard holders in Geor gia, over 14,000 merchant loca tions throughout the state ac cepting BankAmericard, and 140 correspondent agent banks par ticipating in the BankAmericard of Georgia program. In 1968 national BankAmeri card sales increased 77% over the previous year, while the num ber of cardholders jumped 179% during the same period. Present ly, the number of BankAmericard holders is growing at the rate of 900,000 a month, and there are more than 18,000,000 card holders throughout the country, making BankAmericard the larg est of all travel and entertain ment credit cards combined. Already BankAmericard is found in Canada, Japan, Ireland, Malta, Gibraltar, South Africa, Mexico, England, the West In dies, Hong Kong, Guam, Saipan, Truk (in the Marianas) Scotland and Italy. The familiar blue, white and gold BankAmericard emblem will be appearing in all states (it is now in 46) and in more countries as its acceptance and use con tinue to spread. “BankAmericard of Georgia and Mclntosh State Bank certainly expect to keep pace with this growth as it goes into its second year,” Mr. Asbury concluded.

Jackson Coke Bottle Found At Conyers An old Coca-Cola bottle, pro perty of the Coca-Cola Bottling Cos., Jackson, Ga., was found Fri day in Conyers by Norman Ham monds as he worked in his gar den. The bottle was unearthed in excellent shape with only a chip on the mouth to disturb its long vigil. The local Coca-Cola plant was closed in the late teens or the early 20’s which would place the age of the bottle from 49 to 55 years or so. Mr. Hammonds gave the bottle to his father-in-law, W. N. John son, who brought the bottle by the newspaper office Monday morning. Mr. Johnson said he plans to clean up the find and keep it for awhile. An antique dealer offered Mr. Hammonds $6 for it, but many who have viewed the almost perfect relic of by gone days feel that it will bring a great deal more than that. The bottle was of 6% fluid ounce size and was manufactured long before the now familiar Coke “waist” bottle came into being. Indian Springs MRS. W. A.
