Description: A B CO Antique Brown Beer Bottle - Bubble Glass. Hello! This is an antique A B CO amber beer bottle that is dated between 1905 - 1914. Please see the information below I copy/pasted from “glass bottle marks . com”, a leading resource for expert information on dating glass bottles. It stands 9.5 inches tall. This is an antique hand blown bottle. You can see bubbles in the glass, please see pics. Condition is as seen in pics, with no cracks or chips. If you have any questions or need more pictures, please send a message. From the site: “A.B.Co……………………….. American Bottle Company (1905-1929). Chicago, Illinois (office – 1905-1916); Toledo, Ohio (office – 1916-1929). Glass plants were located at Streator, Illinois; Newark, Ohio; Belleville, Illinois; Massillon, Ohio & Wooster, Ohio. The American Bottle Company was purchased by Owens Bottle Machine Company in 1916 (with some of the plants being closed soon afterwards) but the Streator and Newark plants continued to operate under the American Bottle Co. name until 1929, when they became part of the merger that resulted in Owens-Illinois Glass Company. (For Streator and Newark plant marks from 1916 to 1929, see “17N” and “16S” entries). Most, if not all, of the “AB”, “AB CO.” and “A.B.CO.” marked bottles are believed to date between 1905 and 1916. However, it is possible that some bottles with these markings might date between 1916 and 1929, but, if so, could only have been made at either the Streator or Newark plants. “ Additionally…the site says this about the specifics of the heelmark info. Of this specific bottle: “The A.B.CO. heelmarks we have seen all used an upper-case “O,” usually included punctuation, and frequently were followed by three- or four-digit numbers that were probably model or catalog codes (Figure 28). Sometimes a single numeral or letter was placed under the other numbers. Often accompanying date codes were mistaken for an “SABCO” mark (see next entry). The logo was probably used during the entire tenure of the company’s hand production (1906-1914).” Have a great day! - The E.C.E.
