I've never dug up one of these before so I'm happy to find it. The mold line goes half way up the neck and stops so I'm guessing it's 1910s perhaps, or could it be older?
as the Owens Automatic bottle machine didn't go into production until late 1907 I would assume that your dating of 1910 is really really close, but could be a tad older........Andy
1890 strikes me as a bit too old. Were they printing "Made in..." much on things that early on? BIM bottles lasted for a bit longer in Canada than they did in the U.S. They were still going strong in the 1920's.

Here is my example: (Embossed) "S. S. Stafford Ink's, Made in U.S.A., 16 Ounces" (Paper label reads) "Stafford's, P.O., Writing Fluid, Made By, S.S. Stafford Inc., New York" The seam stops much closer to the base of the neck than the lip.
