Cylindrical amber bottle with proportionately wide neck & lip. It measures 4.7 cm tall by 2.2 cm wide.
Pharmaceutical medicine bottle with paper label stipples, tooled lip & "1/4/S" on base. Paper label stipples keep glued-on labels from moving until the glue dries. Tooled lips usually end by the early 1920s, though small pharmaceutical bottles might be later. #archaeology #glass #historics

Hutchinson-style partially melted "Leesville Bottling Works/ Leesville/ Louisiana" soda bottle with "I.G.CO. 477" on heel (Green 2015, Fig. 13). The bottle dates between 1879-1895/1900 based on the Hutchinson design & the mark, either Ihmsen Glass Co. or Illinois Glass Co. #archaeology #historics

Red plastic Monopoly hotel with explanation about its age & that the wood ones were made from Maine wood that was shaped & dyed in tubs of coloring.
The plastic hotels & houses in the game Monopoly turn 68 this year. Prior to that, they were made of wood (Hasbro 2015 in Green 2015 pp.33). In the US these iconic games pieces are historic (50+ years old) artifacts when found on historic sites & need to be treated as such. #Archaeology #historics

Some glass bottle maker's marks include a date code, as well as a plant/factory code (Green 2015, Fig. 11). The dates can be either 1- or 2-digit numbers. For 1-digit numbers we usually have to use the factory code to determine what years the plant was active. 1/ #Archaeology #historics #glass

Try-Me Beverages began in Sylacauga, Alabama, ca. 1924 & went out of business ca. 1956. The unusual 7 oz. & 10 oz. bottles were patented in April of 1924. The glass is usually clear with a slight green tint. I illustrated this 10 oz. that came into the Lab. #bottles #archaeology #historics #glass
