I have been searching for over a week to get info on this jug that come from my Grandma's house in Rochester, NY. The only similar reference I have found is located at the New York Historical Society Museum.
Here is what I know of my jug:
It stands over 13 inches
It is one gallon (embossed on back)
It has a US Pat. nos. 107451-107542 embossed on bottom
It has a maker's mark of MG on the bottom and the M and G share a single side
The time frame according to the museum is 1920-1930
It is brown/dark amber
I believe it to be mold blown
This is the museum description:
Amber machine-made glass wine jug with threaded lip (cap missing), hooded neck, sloped down shoulder with one handle, round body with flat sides decorated with embossed grape leaves and clusters, and circular marked base.
Please help. I have many more pictures that I could send to someone knowledgable.
