The company is still in business today. http://www.norwichpharma.com/overview/history.htm Check it out. Pharmaceutical company so your bottle probably held some sort of medicine. _____________________________ Woody (in reply to Trying not to break it) Post #: 2

I do know in the forties it was sometimes called Duraglass, both in script and print. (in reply to Trying not to break it) Post #: 4

Anyone ever see a cobalt one? (in reply to Trying not to break it) Post #: 6

Norwich used to make it at one time. I have the same bottle, I found it in my 60's dump. (in reply to Trying not to break it) Post #: 7
