    This is an interesting amber bottle with a screw top. It measures 5" x 2". The seams do not go over the rim, they are up the sides, but it seems like they were struck and a mistake was made so they were made a second time, but the second mark does not go all the way up and the second marks are partial and crudely done. The top of the bottle, just below the neck says Marchand's. I believe it was peroxide. The bottom has a 10 and next to it is a mark that looks like the Heinz brand mark, and it has a K in it.

      Nice bottle!
      The symbol on the bottom of your bottle is a keystone.
      K in a keystone, Knox Glass Bottle Co. The main plant was located in Knox, Penn.
      Knox had many plants and I am unsure of which one or what the #10 represents.
      Perhaps another collector will be able to help date.
