    These were given to me a couple of years back and I have no info on them. The only markings on the bottle are on the bottom O Wens. They have a porcelain stopper with a rubber washer. Any help in identifying these would be greatly appreciated:)

      I can tell you one thing - that is the early Owens Glass mark used between 1919 and 1929 - Presumably, the mark was phased out around 1929 after the merger with Illinois Glass Company, although it probably took a period of time, perhaps a year or two, before all molds in then current use would have been re-tooled with the new mark for Owens-Illinois: "O and I entwined with a Diamond"
