Dug these old bottles up in a creek bed yesterday. Both say Duraglas.
Based on a previous post on here, I know the Diamond IO symbol means
It was made by the Owens-Illinois Glass Company.
The 7 to the left of the Diamond IO symbol on the brown bottle indicates it was made in Alton, Illinois
Duraglas was not put on bottles until 1940

Numbers at the bottom of the amber bottle read "E1596" with a "9" to the right of the symbol and a "3" below it

On the bottom of the clear bottle there's a "12" to the left of the symbol, a "0" on the right and a "9" below it

Both say Duraglas

Go to www.sha.org
It will tell you anything you want to know about bottles. I'm definitely no expert but if I'm not mistaken, duraglas was made in the 40's and 50's
