I'll have to check on the seams, I left it with the landowner, it says "Property of the M Burkhardt BRC co, Akron Ohio."
Burkhardt Brewery went through several name changes from the 1860's until the 1950 when it was sold, but "BRC" wasn't in any of the names......Bottling & Re Capping? Brewing & capping?
Googled BRC, nothing with bottling I could see.
I did read where they had a short run of 1/2 gal beer bottles that are rare, this one is big, but I'm not sure if it's that big. The similar bottles I saw on line were much smaller.
Seams through lip helps age it? The "09" on the bottom...1909?
That would have been BRG, short for Brewing, sometimes it's hard to distinguish a G from a C. The numbers on the bottom are 160, which is most likely the mold number. Mold seams thru the lip would mean it was made on a automated bottle machine(ABM), and yes that helps date it. I went by the bottle makers mark on the bottom though, they were in business from 1901-1919... Jim
