第3版 Mini-world 万花筒 除了口味，可口可乐最具特色的是什么？ 当然是它的流线瓶 (contour bottle) 啦！ The Coca-Cola bottle is called the contour bottle. It was created by bottle designer, Earl R. Dean. In 1915, the Coca-Cola Company (可口可乐公司) launched a competition to create a new bottle for the drink, a bottle which “people could recognize even if they felt it in the dark”. At first, Dean wanted to base the bottle’s design on one of the drink’s two ingredients, the coca leaf or the cola nut. So he went to the library to find pictures of coca and cola. But, in the library, he got interested in a picture of the cocoa pod. Over the next 24 hours, Dean created a bottle based on the picture! He won the competition, and his contour bottle became the standard for the Coca-Cola Company. Today, the contour Coco-Cola bottle is well-recognized ... even in the dark!
