(For more info, please check out the extensive article by Bill Lockhart and Russ Hoenig; a link is posted near the bottom of this article). Best regards, The “12” is a mold number. No, I don’t know which O-I plant was assigned #62 as their liquor bottle permit number. The drawing in which the number below the logo is labeled “unknown code” is rather odd, since it has been known since Toulouse published his “Bottle Makers and their Marks” in 1971 that the number below the logo is usually the mold or “mold cavity” number. ), bottom is a 7 and right is a 2 (obviously from 1932). Hi Tifanni, Owens-Illinois Glass Company was the result of the 1929 merger between two glass-making giants of the industry: Owens Bottle Company (Toledo, OH; predecessor Toledo Glass Company began operation in 1896) and Illinois Glass Company (based in Alton, Illinois, with glass production ⦠David. David. thank you! That’s the best I can do. Any idea what would have been in this jar? If the “3” is accompanied by the “newer” mark (I inside an O) it could stand for 1963 or 1973. Can you give me any information about it? Without seeing the bottle, I’m not sure what it was used for, but if you can, send me a pic to my email listed at the right bottom corner of the page. Sounds like it may be a 5-gallon water bottle. Still can’t seem to place the date using your page and the Lockhart article. Since you found it yourself and it can be considered as a part of the “local history of your own home”, I would find it of interest and I would definitely keep it, sort of as a souvenir or conversation piece. There is no way to be sure what was in it unless there is an intact label. 17 is on the left and 82 on the right. Take care, Milt, I don’t know of any source for information that specifically discusses Owens-Illinois whiskey bottle marks. Hi Mary, One is a coke bottle with 68 on the left…the I inside the oval/diamond (Owens-Illinois)…and 45 on the right. Do you know how deeply this was buried, if buried at all? The bottom of it has a 7 then the “old” O I logo with the diamond followed by a 4 to the right. We found a I.W. The information is probably available somewhere at the official U.S. Patent and Trademark Office website. Hope this helps! Because it doesnt in Google. This trademark is in current use on most Owens-Illinois glass containers made within the United States (as of 2020). If so, how do I determine it’s age and if possible, what the bottle was originally used for….Thank You…Paula, Hi Paula, many times the “I” is either too small or indistinct to show up on the finished bottle, or was not engraved in the mold at all, but this has nothing to do with whether or not the bottle is a product of Owens-Illinois Glass Company. Duraglas, I have an Owens Illinois Glass Company decanter with the image of a crown and the signature of Kalakaua 7887 above it. Those jugs were used for various liquids, such as vinegar, soda syrup, apple cider, etc. Diamond-Oval-I trademark used by Owens-Illinois Glass Company, GLASBAKE marking on base of clambroth/white milk glass custard cup. https://sha.org/bottle/pdffiles/OwensIllinois2015.pdf Bill, Bill, I’m not familiar with the bottle, but Owens-Illinois has made tens of thousands of different bottles over the years. Hi David, I have read this with great interest. It has an odd texture and 2 vertical seems running up the sides. R inside a “sun” representation. At the top of the bottom of the bottle there is a barely distinguishable 03071 (I think). (My vote would be for 1945, but no guarantees). To left of the symbol is number 12. What exactly do I have on my hands? 2) The number to the left of the Diamond/Oval logo is usually (but not always) the plant code number. Hope this helps, the 1940s instead of 1930s). Hello, second picture of green glass ointment jar attached. There will be a glass company (“glass bottle company” or “bottle company”) AND a “bottling company”, “brewing company” or “packaging company”. ~David. I found a small 1oz. The “O-I” mark (being the third major trademark embossed on the company’s glass containers) was officially registered by the United States Patent & Trademark Office on March 20, 2007, under registration #3219434. “First use” of this mark is claimed to have been on December 17, 1997, according to information posted on the justia.com website, here: Hope this helps, It has a big 0 with a line through it and a capital L next to it…..and a small 3 under both (one 3, just under the 0L. I know you’ve said on here that a period may indicate the year it was produced, but as you noted, that’s typically to the right of the diamond mark instead of below. You can find more info by searching this list of permit numbers which is at this URL (this is a .pdf file)  Liquor bottle permit numbers.  (NOTE: One plant number used on Owens-Illinois liquor bottles that is NOT listed within the lists shown on that webpage is #56. That is the liquor bottle permit number used at the old Hemingray Glass Company factory in Muncie, Indiana, which O-I acquired in 1933). Also, there are several posts (scattered through the comments section of this page) where we have discussed this question about LBPNs. David. Screw top (don’t have the lid) , says duraglas on the front, Owens on the bottom with a logo that looks like a sideways diamond with a circle going through it. David. “OWENS” appears on the base of some clear prescription bottles. Illustrated among the pics on this page is the base of a bottle made at the Columbus, Ohio facility (plant #18) with a date code of “7” which in this case probably stands for 1937. I don’t know how late the word “OWENS” was embossed as a trademark on the base of those medicine bottles. Hi Lindsey, This piece measures 11 inches in diameter. Yours indicates manufacture at their Los Angeles, Ca facility (plant code #23); I believe that number was used circa 1948 to 2004. [Readers, Duncan emailed me with a base photo of this mark. Sorry about that, It’s the first bottle from the 1960s I’ve found bearing the old trademark, and I’ve been collecting soda bottles since I was 15 years old (1978). It looks like a 7 to the left and 3 to the right. If the design was popular it is possible they were produced for some years after 1932. This is an emerald green soda bottle made by Foster-Forbes in 1990. Great! My family has a collection of Owens Illinois decorated yearly bottles,dating from the 1930′, 1940,and 1950. I believe I got this info from somewhere on the internet, but don’t remember where. Most of the bottles seen with this code on the bottom are emerald green 7-UP bottles. Take care, David. In general, (and this is my own understanding…….I invite clarification or corrections from readers!! The “weird 3” is a symbol that means “ounce”, so your bottle held 3 ounces. Can you give me any information so I may find the value of this bottle. Since then the plant has been torn down, the South Ave ext which dead ended at the plant was opened all the way through, and a park now exists where the factory once stood. I cannot say which year is correct. Of course, the jar could have certainly been discarded on site subsequent to the removal of the original structure (as there is a nearby active farmstead). the bottom of the bottle is stamped as follows from top to bottom and reading left to right. The other bottle is dark green in color. I hope this info helps a bit! I’m sorry I cannot be sure which year is the correct one. Your website has provided me with my first lead! On the very bottom of the bottle it has 20 then the diamond, then a 3 with no period. Examples: plant code #2 stood for the Huntington, WV plant; â3â³ was the Fairmont, WV plant (that number used up to 1981, later “3” was used by Muskogee, OK); “4” was Clarksburg, WV;  â7â³ indicated Alton, IL; â9â³, the Streator, IL factory; â12â³ was Gas City, Indiana; â14â³ was the Bridgeton, New Jersey plant, #21 is Portland, OR; #22 is Tracy, CA; #20 is Oakland, CA; #23 is Los Angeles, CA, etc. Hi Mark, I know the 7 is the factory but what is the 1. They have made tens of thousands of noticeably different types (counting all the different models, shapes, profiles, sizes, glass colors, and markings) and the truth is that most of them do not have much monetary value to bottle collectors at the present time,mostly because they are relatively recent, have no markings except for the bottoms, and are often of clear glass. I was going to ask the same questions you did so thanks for doing all the work for me! David. The field of Owens-Illinois is a VERY WIDE field, and it’s very hard to make a statement without making clear there are lots of exceptions here and there. It’s probably a style or catalog number that was assigned to that particular bottle design or shape. I’m guessing it would be a generic gallon jug used for liquids such as bleach or other cleaning / chemical products. Any ideas? I knew that but in my haste to answer Mark’s post, I forgot the bottle was also marked DURAGLAS.
