Thanks for the research CanadianBottles never seen them before either. It’s really one of the only reasons I even picked them up to have a look! Was told they came from one of the workers on the bottles! Also got this little press glass ashtray with them.

Wasn't research on that one, it was memory! That ashtray is nice too, looks like an older one based on the logo. I see glass company ashtrays from time to time but don't remember seeing that one before.

These bottles were made just before the glass plant shut down on Sept 30-1989 each shift and each department had there own bottles with the workers names all painted on there bottles. Also there was a movie made by a company that was made as the plant was running so it was like a tour it was a very sad time for a lot of people in Red Cliff and Medicine Hat Alberta It was a blow to the area because the payroll for the plant at full production was 500,000 so you think $1000000.00 a month gone hurt the towns and area
