Hi pancakes sandfries,
The way you can tell if the bottle is from before 1900 is the seam line goes up to the lip,and stops.Machine made bottles the seam line goes to thru the lip to top of bottle!

Illinois Glass Company merged with Owens in 1929, but I have not yet found an example online that features the Diamond and Oval Trademark together with the full "Illinois" embossing.
