Duraglas with man on bottom base

[kadcock]

I have recently joined this forum in hopes of determing what most of the bottles in my collection are and what their value is. As a kid I would dig in farm dumps with my dad on weekends. I have hundreds of unique bottles that have been sitting in my basement for over 40 years. It is time that I start getting rid of some of them.

I have a srew cap bottle that is 7 or 8 oz. It is clear with a very light tint of green. There are five rings at the neck and on the bottom (referring to the bottom while still standing upright) is the words Duraglas. When you tip it over and check out the base there is a stamping of a man who looks like he is waving, a diamond bezel and the numbers 9 and 7. Question is, what is it and what is it worth?

Thank you, Kipp

I discovered that the embossed diamond has an "IO" in the center of it. Therefore, it was made by Owens Illinios? Why both "9" and "7"? I thought these were plant locations?

i just picked this one up yesterday at the flea market for .50. Has some imperfections, but I really liked it for the little Eskimo on the bottom [8|]

Thanks to all who responded. It is in fact a Pluto mineral water bottle. If you look really hard at the stampt markings you can see the "Pluto" under the man. Ironically, the stamping goes through a portion of the word.

My bottle is different than the one posted. It has a screw type replacable capand is much smaller. Stay tuned, I have lots more to pick the brains with.
