The letter G was the date code for Glenshaw Glass bottles made in 1935.
Citrus Products company (maker of Blue Bird) was based in Chicago, but bottled at various licensed locations across the United States, similar to Coca Cola, but not as prolific.

Like the funky design on this one and how the profile lines meet the base.
