Hi folks! I have a project in mind...
Maybe some of you could help me put together a nice group of dated bottles here.. I don't mean patent dates, or "since..." dates.. I mean like this one, with a big fat 1873 on it..

Thank you Mike, that's exactly the kind of thing I'm looking for!
I figure a good selection of dated bottles (I suspect most of them will be beers/sodas like these) will help us to put a timeline on other undated bottles with similar characteristics..

I do not have any locals with the year embossed, unfortunately... I've got bottles that I can date certainly to one or two years of business, but none with embossed years... Yet... [;)] I do have a picture of the earliest confirmed crown top and its blob counterpart, though.

I'll try to get a pic of our Doyle's. We have one whole, and one glued back together, My whole one says "1872" with an "E 3" on the bottom. Joe's glue back is "1872" with just a big "E" on the bottom. I wonder what the difference is?? Thanks for another interesting post, Charlie. I'll be looking for more date bottles around the house, now.
