| | Mountain Dew |
 | | Mountain Dew as we know it today had its beginnings with Hartman Beverages in Knoxville, Tennessee, Tri-City Beverages in Johnson City, Tennessee and the Tip Corporation of America, in Marion, Virginia. |
 | | Initially Gordon bottled Mountain Dew in two different bottles, an 8 3/4 oz returnable which sold for 5 cents and a 28 oz green glass, non-returnable bottle (which can be seen in the picture of Charles Gordon on Tri-Cities page) which was sold for 15 cents. |
 | | But since the New Mountain Dew flavor was not in direct competition with Pepsi's Teem, and since Pepsi did not have a lemonade flavored drink of its own to bottle, Jones finally had a market with Pepsi. |
