During the course of that discussion it was disclosed that Andy's bottle was made by the Pacific Coast Glass Works of San Francisco and marked with a PC in a Triangle. In this new discussion I am going to attempt to make sense of their various marks and see if I can attribute appropriate dates to their numerous marks. For starters, here's the link to Andy's thread ... https://www.antique-bottles.net/forum/new-soda-bottle-find-m685079.aspx ~ * ~ Which brings us to this list of the various marks used by the Pacific Coast Glass Works/Company so as to familiarize yourself with the task that lay before me.
