There was a H.E. Koontz from Baltimore, so it seems very possible...

There's a PYRO milk bottle on Ebay with that same style print as the front of your box, it's a Baltimore Mayland bottle...[;)]

Here are a few examples in the completed section...

Found this about the DAIRY was tore down to build Northern Parkway http://www.kilduffs.com/Factory.html . I wonder If Waskey or any of the other Baltimore Bottle club collectors can tell me more about this box..

Hey Rob. Nice looking box, but not overly uncommon or highly collectible. Your's looks like a newer one, maybe 1960's or so. The bottles are easy to find. I'd say if you like it, $10-15 would have been a decent buy. You might get $15-25 on a good day with the right buyer.
