I don't own one YET.
I found an old milk bottle, and I can't find any more information on it. Does anyone know anything about the Armstrong Dairy in Beaumont CA? The bottle is a half pint, basically the same shape as this CAPITOL DAIRY CHICAGO Half pint 1/2 pt milk bottle embossed clear pristine | eBay

and says ARMSTRONG DAIRY BEAUMONT CALIF and in the center is says PHONE 7472

The only other markings on this bottle are on the back, near the bottom reverse of the label. They say either 23 (then a triangle shape in the middle) 6

or it could possible say 29 ( triangle) 8. It's hard to make out.

thanks for any help.

Armstrong Dairy produced certified milk between 1937 and 1941

Edit: In 1939 the Armstrong Dairy was located on Beaumont Ave. and their phone number was 501. My guess is your bottle is from a period after 1939 since the telephone number for the AD was then a four digit number versus a 3 digit number in 1939.
