    McC(ormick's)?

    I finally got around to cleaning the "lesser" bottles from last week's privy dig, and two of them have some lettering on the bottom. They're square bottles; one is 5" tall and the other 4 1/4". The larger has M c C on the bottom and the other W M c C. Hopefully the pictures will show this. Does anyone know anything about these? Could they be early McCormick's? Help!

    Both the bottles are from the glass maker William McCully and company Pittsburgh PA. (c- 1841- 1909). Nice finds.

    Hey, thanks, Wolverine! Where do you get information like this? I have a bottle book with lots of different trademarks in it, but couldn't find that one. So these are 100+ years old, then. Swell.
