Budweiser anyone??

Wanted to know if my information is correct. according to a little research, the initials on the bottom of the bottle(A.B.G.M&co) coresspond with Adolphus Busch Glass Manufacturing company. This would be PRE anheiser-busch days , which dates back before 1861.
Is this info correct??

this is prob. a late 1880's bottle . i dug five from a privy last saturday. all other bottles except 1 was from that time period. very common to find in central illinois were i am. i think the rest of your info is correct.

I'm not sure of the exact date but I think Conrad was out of there by 1879 and Anheuser Busch took over after that.

Thanks Jeff. It happens to be one of my favorites so , Just wanted to put a timeline on it. I also put up several other pictures of the soda bottle with the embossed picture on it on the other thread
