Howdy John,

It's post 1926. There may be maker / date codes on the base that might narrow it down a bit. Sorry to say that there is little collector interest amongst the bottle guys for screw top ABM bottles. at this time. There are great sodas and milks from this era though, that are quite collectible.

"Andrew Smith died in 1895, and William continued as president of the company until he died in 1913. William was succeeded by his son, Arthur G. Smith (c1875-1936), who continued to expand the company. He added menthol drops in 1922 and cough syrup in 1926..." Smith Brothers
