F.....................Fairmount Glass Works/Company, Fairmount, IN (1889-1906) & Indianapolis, IN (c.1906-1968). I am unsure on the dates of this mark, but perhaps from about 1920 to 1933. See "F.G.W." mark also. Certain bottles (such as hand-blown strap-side flasks) with an "F" on the base which appear to be of an earlier vintage might have been produced by another, hitherto unidentified glassworks. Go to this site for above info and more trademarks, a real great sight.
