The Torpedo bottles have a round end to prevent them from being stood up. The idea was that the soda kept in contact with the cork and stopped the cork from shrinking; the corks would dry up and shrink on upright bottles, causing the bottle to loose pressure. A side advantage for the merchant was that the consumer had to finish the beverage before the bottle could be laid down.

Like that torpedo bottle
I have only found one torpedo bottle over the 40 years I have been collecting.
The rest ain't no junk either. There's several I would sure like to bring home. If my wife would let me in the house with them.  out4gold
