[808beginnerdigger]

Here is another yard sale find. "DAIRYMEN'S ASSOCIATION 1/4 PINT LIQUID (H.D basemark). I didn't see this variety in the Oahu Milk Bottle book but it is the same shape and size as #213.

Love that semi-round base!

Have you figured out a date for it yet?

If it has any kind of marking on the base or around the edge of the base we might be able to nail it.

Off the top of my head I'm guessing either Illinois Pacific Glass Corporation (IPG in triangle, 1925-1931) or Illinois Pacific Glass Company (I.P.G.Co in diamond, 1902-1926).

Take a look and let me know. Mahalo!!!

That is quite the informative base you have there!

The big HD is obviously for Honolulu Dairymen's.

The symbol is the maker mark for Owen's-Illionois Glass Company.

The number 6 to the right of the symbol means that the bottle was made in 1936.

The number 17 to the right of the symbol means that the bottle was manufactured in the Clarion, Pennsylvania factory.

I had figured it to be teens or twenties based on......well, OK I was just guessing! The semi-round bottom and extra thick glass make it look far older than 1936.

Very nice bottle indeed and uber-score if it's one of a kind!!!

Mind if I ask how much you paid for it?

Mahalo!

Bought some other bottles mixed milks (some good, some cracked) one sode (a little sick) and a few orientals for $60 bucks... M.T. say's that is the second one he have heard about. Going to bring it to the club tomorrow for show and tell.

That was certainly the deal of a lifetime!I'd bet that there are people that would pay you 10 times that amount for just the Dairymen's......Wsa the sode BIMAL? If so, I'd love to see it!Aloha

Yes, a Consolidated crown-top #33. It's getting a spin-job. The Waialua was also in the group.

 

[sodetraveler]

Wow! I'd pay the $60 just for that Consolidated!!!

Any plans to put that sode out in the sun? I'm pretty sure that #33 turns a nice shade of purple.

Sorry, I'm new here. Not sure if anyone will find this post after several years have gone by. But, just in case someone does, I have both a 1/2 Pint and a Pint sizes of this Bottle! I also have 3 New Fair Dairy Bottles too, 2 are Pint and 1 1/2 Pint. I can't understand, it says, Honolulu, T.H. Wondering what the "T.H." Stands for. Maybe it's not a T? It's in cursive so not exactly sure...I have pics if needed.

T.H. = Territory of Hawai‘i.
