hello there,
Brown is used on both whiskey,and beer bottles.The reason is that both can spoil due to UV ray from the sun .Brown works vary well in this case..No it's" NOT BLACK GLASS!"
Black glass is defined as dark green bottle glass used on wine bottle and so forth.
The other black glass is defined as "Black glass" appears to be black is "black amethyst glass.Take your piece put it to sunlight black amethyst will appear as a deep purple.If it doesn't then it's painted on when the bottle was still hot after being made.

Not painted on. Just an opaque black glass bottle.

Makes sense if they were using Southern Star glass bottles of California. Funny you mention Mission. I found 2 crowntop embossed ones the other day. Newer no deposit no return.

It is made by the star bottling works. That is all I know. You got one too. Same star with an S inside.

I have a very similar black glass bottle, but the base is embossed Mission / Orange / Dry. No makers mark or date code. Also a 'no see through'.
