Neat stuff! Boy, do I remember those old Grapette, Sun Crest, and 7-Up bottles from 'way back in the 50's. Those were the days when we'd scrounge around until we found three empties to cash in for 2¢ apiece, then buy a bottle of pop and a piece of bubble gum.

It's great to have you with us on the forum, Boopsie. Keep on posting!

Nice glass! I tore an old 1800's house down that I own and found about a dozen like the whiskey on the left under the back room floor. That got me hooked on old bottles. I found an old dump in another town that I've been finding stuff in like milk bottles and old dishes but the guy I work with, who lives there, found a couple little cream bottles, very cool.

[boopsie1314]

yes, it has a 9, a square with an o in the middle,and a 9 on the other side of the square.

"O in a square..........Owens Bottle Company, Toledo OH (1903-1929), also Fairmont, WV; Clarksburg, WV, and other plant locations. Owens Bottle Co. merged with the Illinois Glass Company of Alton, IL in 1929 to form the Owens-Illinois Glass Company. (Julian Toulouse stated this mark was first used in 1911, but according to U.S. Patent & Trademark Office data, Owens claimed first use was not until 1919)."

The above comes from the following website. I think you'll find it helpful in identifying many of your other bottles:
