I’d check here;
NO it is definitely a bottle bottom. Looks like a soda bottle. The faint marking looks like 20 N, which would indicate American Bottle Company, made at their Newark, Ohio location in 1920. Or....maybe it is something else and I am not reading it correctly! ?I only mentioned Toledo as my friend found the shards there. I do still like the idea from Len that the T makes a shovel. Maybe the O is a hole. Like would a company that dug holes in Toledo have a special bottle? the world famous Edward Martin Brooks Toledo Spade Oil. OK maybe not.
I have looked for EMB Toledo Ohio but have come up with nothing, alas. I haven't head back about the other markings on the bottom either. Do you think maybe it's not a bottle bottom but instead is some industrial piece like a fancy fuse cover or something?
No, the mark used by Modes-Turner Glass Co is only an M and a T, definitely no other letters. I have a picture of the Modes-Turner mark on my website (glassbottlemarks.com) on "page 4".It may be Modes-Turner brothers from Indiana.???
I was thinking a possible combo only used for a short time. The M and T certainly match. That was a great site-nice work.No, the mark used by Modes-Turner Glass Co is only an M and a T, definitely no other letters.

I found this monogram that isn''t exact but has similarties. Perhaps it's an older or newer variation.View attachment 243070View attachment 243071
Hi! A friend found these near Toledo, Ohio on Lake Erie beaches. Can anyone identify the mark? Thanks!
