Well, at least I'm guessing that's what it is, stands just under 9" and is about 2 3/4 wide on the sides, almost looks like a Log Cabin bottle...lol...shows 4/5th quart on the bottom. 20200520_135134.jpg20200520_135146.jpg20200520_135154.jpg20200520_135209.jpg

Ok, the first US patent number issued in 1935 was 94179 and the first number issued in 1936 was 98045. That makes me believe that the design for that bottle was first patented in 1935. That doesn't mean that your bottle was manufactured in '35, I stand with Robby on the manufact'd date of '48. I'm having a hard time seeing clearly the manufacturer's mark on your bottle... Robby? But anyway patent was issued to James S. Steelman, Millville, N.J. on april 30, 1935 for the Whitall Tatum company,N.Y.
