A researcher asked me this quesiton, and I do not know, so I thought I would check
with the rest of you.

Hi Bill;

We have a machine made druggist's bottle embossed "W.F. Young Inc.
Springfield, Mass.  U.S.A." on one side that turned up in Canada.

The base has an embossed diamond with an "I" in the middle (likely
Illinois Glass Co. circa 1916 to 1929 per Toulouse). The bottle is made of
clear glass, and has an Owen's scar on the base. The size is "12 ounces".

I am hoping you have a contact in the Springfield Mass area that might be
able to help us date the bottle more accurately and who might have some
information on the company.

Olive Jones, a retired Parks Canada employee, told me of your
"[log in to unmask]" network some time ago so I thought I would ask you and
your contacts for your assistance.


Cheers,

Virginia Lockett
