Please see photos for all details and label information. The bottom is marked with: I (or dot) within a diamond 1 (inside a suare) 9 2 Here is some additional information on the manufacturer of the bottle based on the markings on the bottom of the bottle and according to the internet: I within a diamond (shown)………..Illinois Glass Company, Alton, Illinois (1873-1929). This mark was used from around 1915 to 1929. ABM (Automatic bottle machine) production was begun at Illinois Glass in 1910, and although I had presumed that the �I in a diamond� trademark was first used around that time, the U.S.Patent & Trademark Office data indicates Illinois Glass claimed use of this trademark was not begun until 1915. As far as I know, this mark is seen only on machine-made bottles which exhibit the typical Owens machine suction scars on the base. On very small bottles, the �I� may look like a dot inside the diamond, or be virtually illegible. Other plants that became part of Illinois Glass Co. during its operation include the Thompson Bottle Company of Gas City, Indiana (acquired 1913); Chicago Heights Glass Company, Chicago Heights, Illinois (1913) and Cumberland Glass Manufacturing Company, Bridgeton, New Jersey (1920).Illinois-Pacific Glass Co. plants (at Los Angeles and San Francisco, CA) were organized as a wholly owned subsidiary of Illinois Glass in 1902. In 1929, Illinois Glass merged with Owens Bottle Company of Toledo, Ohio to form the Owens-Illinois Glass Company . The Alton factory (in later years, Owens-Illinois plant #7) closed in 1983. ** AS IS ** ** WE DO COMBINE SHIPPING ON ITEMS PURCHASED AT THE SAME TIME OR WITHIN A DAY OR SO OF EACH OTHER, JUST LET US KNOW THAT YOU ARE BIDDING ON MORE ITEMS WHEN YOUR FIRST ITEM ENDS ** My Policies: ** We do offer shipping discounts for multiple items purchsed at the same time. ** We ship to the United States mostly via USPS Priority (2-3 days for delivery). ** We will ship world wide, but ONLY with prior arrangements.
