Brockway bottle from 1962

[mseymour]

OK, I found this bottle in my backyard this past weekend. I know it was manufactured by Brockway Glass Co. at Rosemount, MN in 1962. What I'm looking for is what it was used for. I also found a different bottle that was broken.

Any idea what this was used for?

Here's the bottom. It has a "B" with serifs in the middle, the number "8" on the left, the number "62" on the right, and the number "5" on the bottom.

I'm guessing syrup or vinegar...

Could have also been Cooking / Vegetable Oil.

Seriously, let's read what goes along with the picture. I learned to do that in 1st grade. I've noticed senior members being very rude to new members and not just on this post. Especially when newer bottles like this are posted. Way to keep em' comin' back!
