Frankfort Distilleries Bottle Date?

[jskirk]

This is a nice unusual bottle i found today. Is this a common type? I know this is an Owens Ilinois Bottle, but is this a 1934 bottle? This is almost 10" tall

I'm pretty sure that's a '44.

Why 44 and not 34 I do not see a dot next to the 4. What I was wondering about is the plant number on the other side? I would maybe thought the numbers where possibly reveresed. Frankfor disstillery was bought by seagrams.

It may be hidden or faint but if I remember right there was some sort of merger in the 40's involving that distillery and one in Maryland. It's just a memory from a read, I could be wrong.
