Out of about 80 or 100 bottles I saw I picked these 3 to bring home
 
Nice finds, but none of those bottles were blown in a wood mold
 
What about the plain olive green bottle it has a hand applied top and no verticle seam. It shows striations as if it were spun in a wood mold. What is your opinion of that one epackage. Zoom in to see horizontal striations. I would love to know how old people think it is.
 
It was likely blown in an iron turn mould, 1890-1905, 'think it might be English...

Let's see a closeup of the applied top and the base.

Like NJKLAGT said turn of the century turn mold bottle, likely a scotch bottle from the UK...
 
Thank you guys I understand now. !! I see the shoulder seam too
 
I like bottles that display the price. 5c for that much milk? Great deal!

Never find to many milk bottles in the mangroves. Guess they never made it to shore.
