Hey i just found out that this old jug that we have had for the past 10 years is actually a bottle and it has embossing on it. Here is a picture of it the embossing is upside down on the bottle.

Also, that white thing in the middle isn't a scratch it is a little bit of white paint. The bottle is a little bit over 20 inches tall

I think glass jugs are a subset of bottles in general whether its embossed or not. We dont discriminate. Now fruit jars ... those are a different "inferior" breed [:D]

But i thought if the seams running up the bottle cut off early that means that it is pre 1900
