Nice bottle! I have one from a different dairy that says "wash and return" on the back. No date code on the bottom, but I've been told it is old.

Does yours have a date code? Im curious...

New York City Milks - seam to bring big money. Having worked for Thatcher Glass, I have saved a lot of their milks from the age of eight, after being taken there to see how the made them at the age of nine. I ended up working for them later in life for 15 years as an Application Engineer and Management in their Central Mold Division.

I have one NEW YORK CITY - 1/2 pint "/ SOUR CREAM " jar. That was made for the
"/ SUNSHINE FARMS INC. " dairy. I guess I should sell it. I know it is an old one made on the HMB Machine, with a valve baffle mark.

Should be able to at least put a date range based on the mTC. From what I've read there were different marks used over time.
