I dug this clear vinegar cruet in a small late 1920s to 1930s surface farm dump a few weeks ago near Sterling, VA. The embossing on the bottom is a little hard to read in the pic, it reads TWO PATS. APR. 21. 1925 5299.
It also has the O in a square indicating the bottle was made by the Owens Glass Company before 1929.

I only took it home because I'm wondering if it might be a an unmarked White House, Speas, Apple Pie Ridge, etc. Any info on this one?

I didn’t find anything else notable other than several broken D.C. Storm & Sherwood milks, and a couple broken White House jugs.

Here's a pic of the bottom of the bottle.

It is not a Whitehouse or Speas but it is a vinegar cruet. It is one of those things that we may never know what brand it was.

It seems to have the mark of the Owens Bottle Company, who often mass produced bottles and sold them to companies who filled and labeled them on their own.
